    February 14, 2017 - Still very enjoyable though maybe we should have enjoyed these bottles earlier. I enjoy this wine so much because it embraces its unique terroir, something we don't see celebrated often enough in Napa wines. Really nice cassis and juniper on the nose.

    May 5, 2016 - Still going strong! In the sweet spot based on previous vintages of this bottling. Well integrated at this point. Nicely made, nothing offensive, nothing that particularly stands out. Meaty, pepper, and a nice bit of fruit hanging on.

    August 27, 2015 - Really good Napa Syrah, except for a bit too much oak. This held together over 3 nights and the oak did fade. Otherwise smooth dark fruit with well integrated tannins. Ready to drink.

    November 29, 2014 - With a mild biryani the recommended date for drinking is 2014 but with both bottles we thought visually and by taste more ageing would benefit. Alongside 2010 CdR for the meal this showed less complexity - some fruit and clean finish,

    July 25, 2014 - Never materialized into anything meaningful. Red cherry and cigar box on the nose, cherry with some forest floor flavors.
