9/11/2018 - shawnek Likes this wine: 93 pointsFantastic wine for the price! Only wish I could have snapped more up. Still young, but drinkable with a decant, in another few years this should really be stunning. |

9/21/2018 - shawnek Likes this wine: 95 pointsThis is a monster and required significant decant, but was very impressive; my guess is it's just going to get better as time goes on but I didn't want to wait. |
