December 28, 2022 - A fabulous bottle, worth the wait. I would endorse Cannym's note. The wine is fully resolved, but still has tremendous intensity, both on the nose and on the palate and finishes long. It went perfectly with a Beef Wellington. I think it will hold well for a few years, but it's fully ready now.

May 19, 2022 - Perfect condition after 20 years. Beautiful fragrance. Plenty of fruit, not overblown but integrated into the complex structure. Tannins just noticeable, subtle but helping to balance the fruit. Long. A really fine wine—not a blockbuster like (eg) the Armagh or some big Barossas, but more like a fully mature top northern Rhône. Sad that I only have one bottle left.

April 21, 2021 - a bit of leather and mustiness (could have been the glass), dark cassis, oak, moderate creamy-milky mouthfeel, pretty good. Taylor's Steak House Dirty Dozen dinner.

October 6, 2019 - Good, but not great bottle, touch of browning on the rim and fading somewhat on the palate.
