Fun afternoon at Classic with great company. Glad you could join us Bryan.

This surprised me. Very balanced and plenty of fruit (and life) left here. The baby fat and oak have been shed away showing more pure and ripe blackberries, black cherries and cherry tobacco. Espresso beans with dark cocoa followed by cedar and herbal notes toward the finish. Acidity and tannins keep structure really solid here. Impressed.

Opened with steaks to impress non-wine drinking family members. It impressed me as well. Classic “Rutherford Dust”. Gave it a couple of hours in the decanter and it drank quite well.
