  55/35/10 Syrah/Cab/Petit Verdot blend. Syrah dominates. I drank over 3 days. 3rd day began to open. Big dense bold wine. Tannins balanced with predominately leather, cigar-smoke meat flavors, and a touch of dark cherry. I personally am more fond of fruit dominated flavors and more tannic wine, hence my low score. It is very made made and will lay down for 10+ more years. It is a food wine, great with beef bourguignon or other heavy meat dish. Bad QPR because of my preferences in red wine. Otherwise, $80-90 should be limit for those who like this style, instead of $116 that I paid.

  Just pop and pour. It is too tied. I will decant and taste again in 24 hours.

  This was very nice. Balances the ripeness and alcohol beautifully. Has plenty of years left in it, but I thought it was nice after a 1-2 hour decant.
