And the hits jis keep on a'comin folk. Seems like everything Dan Duckhorn has touched over the last 10 years turns to gold and this 'haint no exception. I fell in love with the Migration and let this, the big bro, sleep for 6 months longer before trying. Deep ruby. Black plums cherries and raspberries, spices, smoked meats, all balanced with a touch of vanilla. All come over on the palate with beautiful balance. Some firm tannins that need another 2-4 to resolve. One kick-patootie bottle of juice. 91/90. 45 on futures. 14.5% alc. WW

Just an FYI, Verne -- I tried the 2003 and it showed the hot vintage -- too raisiny for me.
