  Wonderful. Gorgeous smoky notes of menthol, violet, blackcurrant, cassis, underbrush and rosemary. Medium plus weight, tannin and acidity still providing plenty of grip. Very long finish, complexity developing nicely. Drinking now but will continue to improve over the next decade.

  Still a thick, jammy mouthfeel. Plenty of black fruit. Supple tannins. Held up better than expected. Was luscious with our prime rib dinner.

  Everyone loved it. I loved it. It was very dry and at the same time fruity, leathery, and well integrated.

  Deep purple, slight green bell pepper notes, slight band-aid thing going on, ample fine tannins, good verve on this. Classic Opus, leaning towards a Bordeaux profile compared to the others. DD Napa Cabs blind at Michaels. 9th fav by group
