August 30, 2020 - 8 years after my first bottle, still a 92. Also, still kinda a young wine that could use more time in the cellar. On pop-n-pour it is intense but all over the place, it needs a couple hours to integrate. At that point still intense minerals, graphite, oak, maybe a bit of dark berries. Oddly, while this is an intense wine, it isn't a cab type of intense and went well with grilled salmon. This is very good and will still stand a lot of time, but it doesn't have the complexity to push it over 92 in my book.

April 14, 2012 - This is an interesting wine, you get the low acidity and minerals with some fruit as well. It was actually better probably after being open a few days. I'll be keeping the rest in the cellar for a long time.
