In a pretty perfect drinking window. I had this with a homemade paella and shared it with a new work friend. Polished, seamless, balanced, elegant. What a wine and vintage combo this was. Wish I had more bottles.

Pop and pour, late night on the porch by the water. Typical dark and fleshly style with tannins that show this bottle can easily take 10+ more years in bottle. They are coming around and show that this is still better paired with a rich, meaty stew or grilled/roasted meat dish.

Still very young - lots of primary flavours and some evident oak. Based on how my 2005s are doing right now I have high hopes for this in three to five years time, though.

Absolutely love this wine. Smooth, silky and very elegant. Bright red fruit and a long finish. Deserves every bit of the 96pts especially for the price.

Delicious as always, but too big for smoked turkey Xmas dinner. With air shows bourbon/oak, black fruits, baking spices. For me, it needs more time in bottle, not for texture, but more for aromatic development.
