overly ripened fruit with extraction to match. unyielding tannins with jammy fruit flavor bigger than a whale.

Another great 2005, these are ready to go.

Best 05 is Shafer & Vineyard 29 estate in my opinion. You must try them both out of a mag preferably

Tart red and black fruits, great balance and acidity. After 4 hr bottle decant it is finally opening up. Still fairly tannic. This has the legs for another 10+ years
