Part 1 of the final and main event for the Fall WNH. The most spectacular lineup of wines I’ve ever seen, and an overall wonderful ending to an amazing trip with fantastic people.
A baby, but already strutting its power. This is no doubt a modern take on Bordeaux with more rich/sweet black and blue fruit than others, but it reigns in before it gets too Nap-esque as the fruit is more underripe. Mid palate and finish show dark chocolate, bay leaf and a touch of leather. Because of the style, not too adverse to opening now with a 2-3hr decant, but this will improve for many years. Bravo, @Mike R .

A supremely balanced wine with intense tannins and a myriad of black fruit flavors. Extremely full bodied.

I don't drink French reds as often as California, but this was outstanding. Really fine flavors, more fruit than most of the French reds that I've had. Fantastic wine.
