It has gotten to the point I need two wines with the Allen Brothers sampler of Ribcap & Wagyu Ribeye w/ my Roasted Rosemary Potatoes & Christina’s tasty glazed carrots.

The 02 DuHart over achieving the vintage.

The 12 Lutum Durell Vineyard hugs the Rosemary Potato’s & Glazed Cooked Carrots.

The DuHart is dark fruit currants, smoke, tobacco, pronounced lead pencil, clay, river stone, limestone, dark spice, dry& fresh herbs, eucalyptus/mint, dry twig, crushed dry rocks, forest floor and dark wilted flowers with nice acidity & polish & elegance for days.

Classic nose of leather, tobacco, cassis, so good. Nice aged aromas. Some cedar as well. Really tobacco-Ey. Terrific. Like more of a fine Cuban cigar. Some bittersweet cocoa as well. Palate is firm like 2002 can be and is, but also juicy with wonderful minerality and freshness. Very pure and juicy with terrific fruit. I love this vintage.

Fantastic nose, with a lean mid palate an a slightly green finish. Nevertheless quite enjoyable smoky and lengthy, albeit high acidity levels.

Amazing wine. With Elissa celebrating our new house on Yorktown and new baby Grant. We cooked at home. Sometime in early 2014.
