Napa Valley
Dunn Vineyards
Decanted about 30 minutes before dinner.
Incredibly dark purple in the glass.
Earth, mushroom, forest floor, barnyard on the nose. I just love rich, earthy, dirty aromas on the nose.
Medium weight, black and red cherry, a sort of mint-medicinal thing going on, black olives, tarry, leather, but with a sharper and more tart edge than previous bottles. Also lacking a bit of the roundness, weight and richness I recall from my previous experiences with the 1991 Dunn wines.
Tangy and mouthwatering on the finish.
Obviosuly, a slightly flawed bottle, but still yummy.
