Sf night. This was tasting pretty damn good. Much better than my tasting of recent vintages. Killer deal at 55 a bottle for dinner

Wow! Had this exact wine 3+yrs ago and it was okay. This time it rocked! The age did wonders, as everything was almost perfect! Heavy French influence and insanely smooth. Don't criticize my rating until you try this. If anyone owns or knows how to acquire some of the 2007 vintage let me know!!

Good nose. Smooth with a good mouthfeel. Long finish, oak is prominent. Medium bite at the end.

Cherry nose, flat on the initial taste, but HUGE oak finish and after taste.

Better than my last two bottles due to resolved tannins which is a great reminder to put some age on many wines so as to allow them to show their stuff.
