More red fruit than blue, medium plus acidity, medium tannins. I would let this sit down for at least 5 years.

Was very nice with a lot of fruits but seemed a little ruff. Had this after a 2005 Diamond Creek and Wagyu steaks that were both delicious.

One of the best! Sonoma fruit. Dark fruits, good acidity, dark forest, good tannin, a bit of herbs, maybe even some flowers, chocolate intermixed on finished. Brings you back for more. Unbelievable with food.

Nose of mushroom. Leather, forest floor, very dry, subtle acidity on the back of the tongue. Really nice wine.
