April 10, 2022 - same as previous note. Drinking great with lots of dark fruit, silky smooth with integrated tannins.

May 24, 2020 - Best of the half case I originally purchased. An exceptional bottle and sad that it is my last of these. O’Shaughnessy truly makes some of the best wines. See previous notes. If I had any, I would drink them soon to ensure you get it at or near peak.

February 11, 2020 - This was an extended barrel time release. Beautiful dark and blue fruit with violet notes and nicely integrated tannins.
