A perfectly aged bottle. The tannins resolved. Dirty nose with an aged-fruit profile and subdued pepper form the syrah coming in at the end. The bottle still has plenty of legs. Me & the other half loved it.
On Saturday we had a 2007 Calera Mt. Harlan Cuvée.
The cuvée is a blend of 75% Jensen, 15% Ryan, 10% Mills. The Mt. Harlan Cuvée was a steal. Insanely cheap for the quality of wine, especially compared to the single vineyards. I really wished they still bottled a cuvée.
That said, this was an awesome bottle. Nicely aged with the secondary characteristics predominate but still showing some youth. Sadly this was our last bottle. We both savored this bottle.
