December 11, 2022 - Nice. Big blackberry and cassis fruit. Med tannin. Still aging well. Has not peaked yet.

April 23, 2022 - For it's age it very much impressed my non Bordeaux fans it maintained significant fruit and definitely evolved over the 3 hours of charcuterie and meal of Italian pot roast with veggies, sautéed in malbec. Actually tasted along with a 1994 Quilceda creek Washington cab, which was also impressive.

November 27, 2019 - What a beautiful wine. Drank with Vito and Nancy over chocolate, parmesan, and steak. So many layers. Leather, earth, mushroom, forest floor, soy, worcestershire sauce. Decanted for 2 hours and then drank over 3 hours. it continued to nicely evolve the whole time. Sad this was my last and only bottle. It's drinking perfectly but is far from the end of its life.

August 11, 2019 - This medium/full bodied claret was mature and quite luscious with rich round complex fruit, some depth as well as decent acidity and backbone. Not quite jammy, popular round the table and very good.
