Hey I've served the 09 and 10 vintages but haven't ever tasted an older vintage. Could your describe its maturation please?

@Joshua Fisher Retro wines really benefit from bottle aging. They can be very tannic early on. The 2005 is silky smooth with plenty of dark fruit and spice right now. I've made the mistake of drinking these wines when they are too young. Same can be said for Dunn wines.
