  March 10, 2009 - Restricted nose with some fig, cedar and spice. Not much fruit remaining on the palate. Lacks depth. This wine is on the decline.

  May 29, 2006 - Level, color and cork all fine. Aged well. Balanced, with nice red/black fruit over medium bodied wine. Bouquet a little light. Tannins gone but still nice flavor. Paired well with steak, grilled sweet onions, garlic.

  April 30, 2006 - Hard to believe this came from the same case as the two bottles in my prior review. Way past its prime. Sour note overshadowed what was left of fruit (which wasn't much). A shadow of something that used to be much better. Cork soaked nearly all the way through. Level above shoulder but low.

  April 23, 2006 - Silky smooth, medium bodied, good color, voluptuous. Tannins nearly gone (this was better a few years ago) but still balanced fruit and acidity. A little earthy, but currant-like fruit predominates, with just a hint of tar. Opened two bottles. Cork in one almost done but wine still okay.
