Excellent structure, rich fruit, very lively for its age. Nicely integrated. Aromas of pencil lead, dark fruit and coffee grounds. Drank w AK when GrandEl was in town.

3 hrs in the decanter. Pencil shavings, earth, leather, cool cassis notes. Medium body, good freshness, the initial poopy notes dissipate slowly. Rustic tannines, classically built, very good. Happy b-day, L. Even better on day 3!! Saved half a bottle in the fridge. Tannines have softened, fruit is more prominent and darker in aspect. Up 1 point.

A poor vintage and it shows bought this for a vertical. Brown tinge. A big wine - tealeaves leather, cedar notes, blackberry pie. Dirt. Too much tannins at this stage. Remarkable what they coaxed out of the grapes.

Expressive nose and lithe red fruit--light, reflecting the vintage, but very pretty.
