Hint of diesel on the nose, lean, good acidity. A touch more grassiness would balance the citrus. — 11 years ago

Super barnyardy. Not in the bad way. Will repost after it opens up.

Smooths out some. Definitely rustic keeping with traditional style.

Not as elegant as the 2009, but likely to become seamless with a little more time. Cocoa and pencil lead on the nose - maybe a touch heavy on the euc. Fruit, oak and tannins balanced on the palate — 11 years ago
