  July 11, 2020 - Still very smooth with berries and dried fruit. Vanilla and tannins at the beginning. This was the last bottle of 1993

  September 7, 2015 - PNP and blind taste during dinner. Thanks VF for bring the wine.
  
  91-94 are kind of weak vintages during the 90s. Simple fruit, raspberry/sour cherry, oak, spicy, smoky and cigar box. I consider the wine need to drink now and better not to age.

  August 14, 2012 - PnP E says it smells like a dried-up glue stick from her elementary school days. I'm smelling nothing and tasting less. Got this at auction from old restaurant stock -- mishandled bottle?
  
  Day 2 -- Tannins are much calmer, and some additional body has developed. But this bottle of this wine is not going to develop into anything worthwhile.
  
  Day 3 -- Body continues to develop, but aroma and taste are going downhill. DNR.
