9/13/2023 - ChristyLeighNY Likes this wine: NRThis needed to breathe way longer than we let it. It was better on the 2nd and 3rd days. Next bottle should breathe for several hours I'd think. |

12/4/2022 - ChristyLeighNY wrote: NRA little underwhelming. Nothing specifically wrong with it but nothing specifically great either. I suspect it suits a drier palette more than mine. Would prefer to let our remaining bottles sit a few more years to see how they develop. 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (4) |

1/18/2022 - ChristyLeighNY wrote: NRTastes just like a huge Bordeaux made in California :) Really fresh still, would not have thought it was 10 years old, needs a few hours decant. Lots of dark berries, purple flowers, tobacco. Tannins were smooth, very balanced. |
