Opened the night before and showing beautifully today. Nose of citrus rind, blood orange, spice. impressive density in the mouth. Red cherry, herb and citrus rind flavors. Layered and complex. Firm, fine-grain tannin. In a great drinking stage and probably has another decade ahead.

absolutely delicious ... lots of power left but in a perfect spot right now, right between primary and secondary. '92!

Engel's earlier efforts. Big frame and intensely dark small berry feel and high notes. This 96 near its peak and drank still with some mystery which is a good thing.
