Some years were already dropping off frankly.
Curious what your thoughts are?

I agree that SCrow are much better than most of the "Napa cults" when they're young. My vertical goes back to 2009, with a lone bottle of 2007 coming back to me when temps nationwide get milder and shipping windows from some warmer areas start to open up. Planning to pop an '09 next year, and judge accordingly.
Which years did you think were on the decline?
