Really drinking well. Deep fruit, nice balance. Held its own in a strong new world line up as the ringer. Plant of time left as the tannins have something time to go, but with a 5-6 hour secant was beautiful.

Vintage 2010 / dusty smell, a lot of power, high in alcohol, not my style of wine.

The nose is the only thing restrained about this excellent SHL. Shades of graphite, light red berry. After an hour decant, a seamless, velvety liquorice and blue-black fruited palate, perfectly extracted. Several at the table were guessing high-end Napa. A brilliant, sexy and voluptuous wine that’s just coming out of its shell. Destined for cellar greatness. Kudos to Eric and the team at Michael’s on the Hill, Stowe, VT. This feels like the great fooderies of Napa 20 years ago - brilliant, friendly and unpretentious.

Great wine, great year. They made a mistake when they didn't classify the white.

Massive and dense, though still polished. Black fruits, charcoal and anis. Floral and blueberry notes with great complexity.

Pomegranate, cassis, vanilla and açaí push from the nose to the tongue with incredible balance and grace and super tight tannins. Give another 10+ years.

Well heeled, deep and dense; nose of violets, blackcurrents, and leather but quite plain; tannins are quite forward and thick and the fruit is a little uninspiring. Given the reviews this was underwhelming - a pleasant drink but nowhere near Parker's 98pts. I suspect the emperor may be wearing fewer clothes than he thinks...

Huge, surprised it has not shut down but is just the opposite. Make no mistake this is a baby with a ton of stuffing but is happy to express it's fruit and glycerin charms now. One of my favorites from the #ugc10.

Beautiful, smooth texture and most elegant while decidedly structured. Bramble, cassis, dark cherries with light licorice, graphite, and Darjeeling tea. Spicy, peppery edge on the finish with earth and tobacco, eucalyptus. There was less fruit on the palate yet enough layers of complexity, and this didn't detract from the wine's overall power and finesse.
