Great nose and body. Fruit and a bit of truffle earthiness. Great right out of the bottle thru to the end. Had more of a wow at the start. Here's to the special Sauce, Eric!

This has a very strong start, unlike the 09, but evaporates into a very nice balanced finish. I love this vintner, and will be back for more. Delicious!
