    February 11, 2024 - Super Bowl LVIII 2024 (Alpharetta, GA): Cellar Diving: Full disclosure... palate fatigue was in full effect at this point in the night. I enjoyed this more than the two Red Burgs that came just before it. Still young and could benefit from more time in the cellar.

    July 20, 2023 - medium deep young red color, still some reduction, roasted coffee on the nose with plum and cherry, on the palate still very young and evolving at a glacial pace, tannins still evident and overall shut down, this is in a better place but still a bit of a question mark long term, it will be a long wait in any event.

    February 20, 2021 - Love the nose and touch of minerality on the palate but don’t enjoy the slightly sour and short finish.

    December 24, 2018 - PNP. Il y a encore beaucoup d'arômes primaires, sur les fruits foncés, mais la texture est très belle, tannique mais sans astringence. Plus de complexité qu'escompté de ma part à ce stade-ci pour le millésime (les 2012 mes semblent souvent fermés ces temps-ci). Très bon.

    August 1, 2017 - Tuesday Night Double Blind $40+ (Alpharetta, GA): See through dull red, lighter rim; vanilla, smoky, vanilla and strawberry, light cherry, fesh and bright, good mid-palate density, very young and sappy almost to a fault as it hurts drinkability, time should help this; called '11 Clos des Mouches.
