2004 is showing fleshy fruit but lacks backbone and structure and may not have great longevity.

Appreciating my colleagues for sharing this to ease the pain of some after hours work. Classic nose, modest body and persistent finish.

That moment when your work colleagues drank a bottle of bomb ass Bordeaux and you missed it. Struggles of the wine biz.

Another at Gotham Bar and Grill, New York. Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot... ripe tannins, dark berries, smoke.

Beautifully strong nose, complex and balanced with long finish. Licorice, grilled meat, pencil lead and tobacco. Life is good.

2004 is showing well now and a good road ahead. Ripe dark fruit, good concentration, medium body and soft tannins.
