Tasting Notes
Deep ruby/purple with considerable amounts of toasty new oak blasting out of the glass, this wine??s heavy-handed vanilla oakiness conceals its relatively extracted, rich, tannic flavors. It remains dumb and closed, but offers excellent depth, power, and richness. While there is plenty here, patience is required. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2020.(Wine Advocate #158 Apr 2005)
