December 30, 2017 - I opened this for our 12/30/17 belated Christmas dinner. It had a soft, elegant bouquet of floral, cassis, black cherry, cedar, vanilla, herb and spice aromas. The palate was rich and elegant with flavors of cassis, black cherry, cedar, licorice, vanilla and spice.

December 15, 2017 - I've always enjoyed the "Artist Series" from aMaurice, and this was no exception. Well-made, elegant, showing some new oak that has softened and blended in nicely with the melange of other flavors.

December 19, 2015 - This was absolutely lovely. Ripe cherries, silky texture and a long finish. Very sad to say this was my last bottle.

October 11, 2015 - Similar to last time but even better - more aromatic, smoother, fully integrated tannins, complex, and completely delicious.
