Introductory fruit of blackberry, Some nice dustiness or minerality, "Thick" viscous mouthfeel. As the wine warms from cellar temperature, I notice slight tartness, Nicely full-bodied, Quite lengthy aftertaste.

Deep purple with a black core. Luscious blue and blackberries, tobacco. The aroma of a warm summer night under the California oaks permeates. Ready to go with 30 minutes of air but likely has many years to go.

Drank over 3 days. Best day 1, still solid day 2, and in definite decline by day 3. Nice deep, almost dusty black and blue fruits with a bit of PS funk on the finish. Drink now and over the next year or so

Drinking well right now. Ive started leaning towards drinking my LL's earlier than I had planned (even the Petite Sirah) as they just havent aged how I expected them to, and for my tastes, shine way brighter within the first 5 years.
