Somehow after 10 years this turned into a really nice Bordeaux.

Smooth. Starts out a little sweet, but the oak blows off after a bit. Could use some more structure but tastes pretty good!

Really great. Subtle, but beautiful older world style. Great earth on the nose. Gentle, well-integrated tannins. The earthy-ness deepened and improved throughout the night. I look forward to trying it on a Day two. By far the best QPR of the night.
Drank this w a couple other nice cabs during the night (a great fruity WA example (Fielding Hills Estate Select) and a big, beautiful tannic classic example (Boudreaux Cellars reserve). This was definitely good and more my style than the big hitter (2008 Boudreaux Reserve). It just couldn't keep up w the gorgeous tannins and big, pure fruit balance of the Boudreaux, all in all. They are in different categories stylistically, but both beautiful wines in their own way.

Day two: I would t call this "subtle". Killer wine. Delicious. Just not big tannins. Wow. Beautiful work.

Nail polish remover, cassis on the nose. Plenty ripe on the palate, black fruit, very soft tannins, hot finish.
