This is one of the best 2011 wines I have had, certainly the best 2011 at Donelan. For me, this is the sweet spot for a wine.

There is the trademark Obsidian sweet bacon fat and sweet gun oil, buttressed by ample fruit like dark cherry and mulberry. What a pleasure to drink. I had this with local grass-fed hangar steaks, and the wine still had enough body to stand up to the meat. The nose has beautiful bouquet garni: sage, underbrush, sweet ragweed.
