May 2, 2014 - Nose is beautiful forest loam, warm spices and dried currants and berries. Mouth feel is silky, maybe a touch overly old. But still some beautiful fruit and an almost sweetness to it (in a good way). Complex white pepper, plum, and a long finish with a touch of acid. From a 375- what a treat.

January 11, 2009 - Initially the nose is cedary but that grew to be a strong green pepper aroma. Palate has a nice smooth rich mouth feel with plenty of chocolate initially. A good but not great wine. Not sure there is a lot of room for improvement but its not fading any either.
