2013 opened Feb 2017. Blackberries, smoke and a hint of eucalyptus on the bouquet. Smooth tannic structure and no sour notes. Smooth! REALLY! Beautiful body, but it fades a bit after it breathes. Still, it maintains its inherent loveliness.

This was one of the better Santa Lucia PNOs I've had. It's not one of those big fruit bombs. There's some minerality and a berry mid palette.
