    July 11, 2020 - PnP. At a good spot before expected decline. Fruit is not as prominent as last bottle. Pepper and cherry present. Drink up soon if you have bottles

    April 24, 2019 - I think Mflesh nailed the wine description. Went with a pop and then ran through a Venturi. Was worried about some sediment but none was captured in the filter. This wine has a fantastic nose dark cherries and with slight hints of cacao and pepper on the finish. The wine still shows signs of aging a little longer. Currently it is in a very nice place now. You will not be disappointed if you pull the cork.

    December 31, 2018 - Decanted 1:00. Opened up nicely to show diverse character. A bit earthy. Nicely integrated. Probably no reason to hold for more evolution.

    January 18, 2016 - Great structure to this wine. The balance would suggest a blend. Plenty of cherry and blackberry notes with some back end of cedar and leather. Really nice right now but will last for a few more years easily.
