Good vintage, but not as good as 2006 or 2008, but still nice

Dark garnet with crazy legs. Strong dark chocolate scent upon opening, but and hour later there was very little on the nose at all. Rich blackberry and plum. Still a bit of chocolate. Lovely soft finish

Shows a funky, barnyard note on the nose, followed by game and cherry liqueur on the palate. There's a warming perception of alcohol in the finish. The total package strikes me like a cab if it was made in the Southern Rhone. Not my style at all and, even followed over 7 hours, it never evolved into something enjoyable to me.

Fantastic representation of an 07 Napa cab. Absolutely delicious fruit with smooth tannins, chocolate and a hint of oak.

Great time to drink this wine. Started a bit subdued and then opened up with time. Leather, Cherry cola, and mocha were present.
