4/14/2024 - sjdcellar Likes this wine: 94 pointsstill not showing any real signs of age - rich dark fruit finish and smooth tannins. This is very good for the vintage. 3-4 more hours decant would have made this 2-3 points higher given how it performed over the night |

2/17/2024 - SMHalps Likes this wine: 95 pointsCollectable Wine Night (Tuscany Steakhouse NYC): My first of 3 bottles that I purchased upon release. This was decanted for over an hour before pouring. I shared this with my wine group alongside 2 other collectable reds and it was the group's 2nd favorite wine. Not quite full bodied with a long finish, and a great nose. |

2/14/2024 - buckeye76 Likes this wine: 94 pointsDeep ruby red color. Needed 20 -30 minutes in the first glass to open up and show its depth and breadth. Rich berry fruit, licorice and tobacco with hints of chocolate and leather in the nose. Lots of black and blue fruits in the flavor, black cherries, blackberries, black currants, blueberries and plums. Well balanced, medium to full bodied, complex, medium to long silky finish.Drinking very well right now. |

2/14/2024 - Bcw1989 Likes this wine: 93 pointsNeeded a bit of time in the glass to show its true form. Lot of red ripe fruits on the nose and in the mouth. Tannins have subsided, but still present. This vintage has a lot more time to age in the cellar. Truly an enjoyment to match with seafood! |

1/30/2024 - Baxterna Likes this wine: 99 pointsStill a 99. This wine is amazing. Maybe we’re not bougie enough to shame a ‘Napa Fruit bomb’? But me and the lady found this to be nearing perfection. Definitely fruity and complex with a gorgeous balance of med-heavy body, gentle tannins, mild acidity, and moderate alcohol. At 15 years old, it is still gloriously dark plum in color and bright in taste. Some beautiful sediment at the bottom shows its age. No decanting necessary. Although it only got more delicious through the course of our 1 hr meal. If you’re patient enough to wait, could be worth it. Straight from our cellar to our table and into our glass. So delicious! Anything from Scarecrow is so tempting to drink immediately, since that is completely doable, but this is a reminder that maybe I should hold onto my bottles a little longer before I enjoy these delights. |

1/25/2024 - Tim Heaton wrote: NRPnP tasted non-blind over two hours. This took only a few minutes to open, and from there it had some subtle shifts along the way; fairly linear, elegantly textured. Some avg complexity and length, graceful at times, and in need of some more time to more fully flesh out though most at the dinner found it just fine as is. If I had any, I'd open again in five years, and not before, as I think it will have become more interesting, more complete. |

12/24/2023 - Lodi Rob Likes this wine: 96 pointsBig but not overwhelming, truly delicious with lamb loin chops and a mushroom risotto. The wine looks crimson colored with a mushroomy aroma, although that might have been influenced by the risotto. The body is medium/full with silky texture and medium finish, low acidity. Truly excellent. |

12/4/2023 - Bcw1989 wrote: 93 pointsBoth great bottles of wine. Tannins are not as gripping as younger wines. Paired with 2009 Gemstone 1.75. Interestingly, both corks broke on open. Yet the juice was still wonderfully preserved. Wine has lots of life left and was a joy to share during the Holiday season. |

12/2/2023 - jfpwine Likes this wine: 93 pointsDeep ruby. The rather delicate nose for a CA Cabernet takes time and air to reveal itself with sage, herbs, red fruit and lead pencil. On the palate, the fruit is balanced with good acidity and a tannic backbone which lasts through the long finish. This can definitely age well, and while delicious now, should be given a bit of air to unfold. Great showing for a second wine. |

11/2/2023 - kevinpatrick Likes this wine: NR"Off" Vintages from Elite Producers: (Petrus, Lafite, Margaux, etc) (Charlotte, NC): Decanted at 5:30am, put back in bottle 45 min later and refrigerated. Brought to dinner and popped the cork about 90 min prior to serving. |

11/2/2023 - Somm David T wrote: 92 pointsRight inline w/ the 2012 vintage. Fruity and light earthiness. I see the critical range of 92-94. It depends on your love of fruit vs earthiness. The fruit loads on the front end and the earth & complexity comes on backend. The thing that holds this back from becoming more is its lack of depth. If you like fruit over deep complexity, you’ll love this 12. 3 hour decant and the truth is it picks up weight in the very end. For this producer vintage, not worth the price of admission. |

9/4/2023 - tomoem Likes this wine: 94 pointsSimilar notes to last tasting. Starts with blueberry fruit on the nose and morphs to tobacco leaf, and bell pepper. In mouth the wine begins with black cherry, (still not quite fully ripened) blackberry grape jelly and set with a creamy texture. Really well balanced. |
