Rating for United States-California: 88 (slightly better than average year)<br/><br/>Drinkability: drink now<br/>

Rich and robust, flavors of blackberry, black cherry and raspberry mingle with spice and vanilla in the nose. This will nicely accompany hearty pasta and grilled marinated salmon, slow-smoked pork ribs, or duck à l’orange. -Astorwines.com

has a slight bite at the beginning. good wine - not sure if it's worth $40 but ok.

first had with Pat @ The Sage Room HHI. Very good, juicy!
