Drinking wonderfully. Opened at a Masters party and decanted for 30-45 mins. Tasted and it was already flourishing. Carafe didn’t last very long after that. Very Rutherford, with dusty tannins that have softened even more over time. Fruit is well-balanced with the mild acidity and the nose was delicious. I hope to find another bottle soon.

Dennis and Caroline's Holidy tasting. Tasted from a magnum. Opened and tasted about 1 hour after opening. Aromatically the wine is blackberry, cherry, and some menthol. In mouth the wine is all left bank French. Immediate iron, bell pepper, cassis, and that Cali blackberry sweetness. The wine continues to age superbly. it was fatty, large and round. Lovely.

Awesome, only gave it 15 minutes to open, but spectacular! Soft finish, dark cherry delights on my tounge. Hidden coffee flavor. Just a delight (particularly with perfectly cooked NY strip).
