  January 11, 2018 - This bottle showed a little more prune and tannin than the last, but still firmly in the excellent category. Quite potent, with bright plum and cherry fruit, firm tannins, and great acidity. Great pleasure to drink and not going to get any better.

  December 26, 2016 - Great pleasure to drink, and dare I say, old school, at least by 2016 standards. Drink or hold.

  August 28, 2016 - Really drinking well. Dark with slight bricking around the edges. After 2 hour decant the wine was floral, yet had a nice backbone with tar, and mineral elements. Beautiful long finish. Wish I had more

  May 25, 2016 - Drinking fantastic. Floral nose, notes of tobacco and light prunes. Delicious, smooth, long finish. Singing like a spring bird.

  September 10, 2013 - Virtually identical tasting note to the one of 7/9/2013. There is a meaty/bacon kind of smokiness to this wine, that might turn off some People (i. e. vegetarians ;-), but I think it adds to the complexity. Really interesting wine, but time to drink up.
