July 17, 2016 - Needs at least an hour of air. Black fruits and green pepper. Fairly tannic, but fairly plush. Rich, with a nice finish. A couple more years will help.

October 7, 2015 - Black cerry, blackberry and black pepper. Still quite tannic which made it a great pairing w/steak. Good balance, medium finish. No sign of fading at all...

September 5, 2013 - A bit of cherry up front but ends with black pepper. I did not decant but decanting a bit might open it up and soften some of the tannins. Overall, a very good wine.
