    March 13, 2024 - Plenty of life in this. Primary plum fruit, touch of spice and oak. Simple but pure and easy drinking.

    November 1, 2022 - Further to my Note of Aug 20, '21: this is #2. Consistent notes on sediment, color, nose, palate, mouthfeel--and adding a note about some raisins in the nose and palate. Still delicious, would like more. Outstanding-.

    August 20, 2021 - Bought 2b for 12/b from WL almost 10 years ago; this is #1. Solid cork. Decanted with normal sediment for its age. Dark purple; subdued dark fruit nose; mature blackberry, black plum, some earthy richness, good mouthfeel; some persistence. Mature and delicious, glad to have one more and could handle more. Stored horizontally in a cool, dark basement since purchase. My evaluation (see earlier posts for my 4-category, non-point rating system): This is outstanding- when considering quality, age, and price.

    November 29, 2019 - This bottle was fine vs the last one I opened last year January. It was full bodied, dark fruits notes of blackberry and currants with some intensity left.
