    July 12, 2023 - Wonderfully matured claret. Great cedar-inky nose. Long finish. Went great with the prime rib!

    January 25, 2023 - Next to 1994 and 2015 Palmer. The 86 stole the show. Had the same nuanced iron note on the nose, followed to the palate with a soft and easy drinking profile. A wonderful perfume, a nice level of complexity without being completely beguiling.
