17+ 2009. Pity to drink so young, but delicious. And robe already showing some age. Great fruit, good acidity and length. I would hold 5 but not more.

Happy 4th of July. Outstanding. Bouquet explodes out of the glass. Yes we could have waited a few more years but .....
Rich intense wine. So big you feel you could chew it. Long finish.
