Normally let these dudes sit for 10 to become totally integrated. I even sound a little like Bucko when tasting these hummers on release. Deep purple, nose very shy. Decanted, left alone in glass for an hour. Slowly but surely the development came. Red(found all 3!) fruits surrounded by a core of vanilla, pencil shavings, cardamon, and rounded tannins put the date 06-08 firmly in my " To Drink " column. A dense wine with lots of future.90/88. 45 by the box.ww
