January 20, 2021 - I think the merlot is letting it down. A straight Cabernet would be hitting its straps by now. The fruit is disappearing and you are left with fine white pepper tannins. Good but not great.

September 25, 2019 - Quite mellow and not memorable. Had it as a much cheaper wine so maybe it is time to drink them up

October 8, 2017 - Very similar to last time. The fruit remains quite fresh and the acidity has some bite. I am going to leave the next bottle for a couple of years to see if it mellows more. Very nice though.

October 3, 2016 - Big cassis nose. A fruity palate with plenty of dark fruits - blackberries, currants, plums. The tannins are still grippy, and there is also an undertone of subtle oak. Long finish. Acidity is noticeable but not bad.

September 25, 2016 - Mint, eucalyptus, blackberry, plum, mocha and cloves on the palate. Nicely restrained, though perhaps the acidity is a little too prominent. My impression was that this was still a little young. Was enjoyed by everyone though.
