November 4, 2018 - Definitely on the decline but this wine never had vibrant fruit or nose, only a core that seemed to fade rather quickly. Now the fruit develops later and the core is stronger allowing some light tannins to sneak back in as it breathes in the glass. Don’t expect a big blockbuster wine but it has mellowed with age. Do not decant.

July 3, 2017 - Fully mature, with velvety tannins, pleasant mix of primary and secondary fruit characteristics and a healthy dose of oak. Medium plus finish. Solid, but not overwhelming.
