  Wow! Took fellow CT'ers advice and decanted for 3 hours before tasting. Incredibly dynamic, high-tone red berries, cranberry, italian garrigue (dust, field flowers, cedar and tobacco on the nose. Red fruits, cranberry and tobacco on the flavorful palate. One knock: Somewhat thin and metallic moving through the palate; expected fuller and richer. Still, flavorful (if somewhat one-dimensional) through to the finish. This had a lot of energy from start to finish. Delicious.
  
  There is great energy here, with some red tones to the fruit, spice, floral and tobacco. This is flat out delicious. Both the 06 and the 10 were darker, richer and rounder, but boring. This was my last 07 unfortunately.

  Opened for 45 minutes, which was not enough. Should have been 2 hours. Went well with pork stew

  Drank on Super Bowl Sunday with dinner. We had a bunch of apps and cocktails beforehand so only had a small glass with dinner but it was in a good place an paired well with stuffed shells and meatballs. Go Chiefs!

  Consistent with previous tasting notes - it's in a nice place, and it's not clear that it gets better from here, so open one if you haven't already.

  slightly cooked very ripe red fruit; a hint of oxidation; drinkable but something was off here
