Elyse, Petite Sirah, Napa Valley 2005

Purple.

Toasty oak/bacon, blackberry nose. Creamy.

Sweet/creamy/packed textural impression. Plush and concentrated throughout, but also fairly one-dimensional, with little clarity of flavor.

Day 4 - Lifted orange liqueur, grilled meat nose. Rich and packed in the mouth, more spicy flavor now. Still lacks delineation.
Nevertheless, this is really good action.
