Best 05 is Shafer & Vineyard 29 estate in my opinion. You must try them both out of a mag preferably

Tart red and black fruits, great balance and acidity. After 4 hr bottle decant it is finally opening up. Still fairly tannic. This has the legs for another 10+ years

Ink grade, leather, lots of minerals, but soft to drink, tasting some cassis, black cherry, strong finish.
