March 23, 2021 - Found this one in our cellar. PnP with take-out Japanese in a hotel room. Deep red with some brown on the edges. Muted berry and hay on the nose. Medium body. Well integrated. Notes of dark cherry, blackberry and plum. Still drinking quite well 16 years later. Excellent storage certainly gave this wine a helping hand.

April 22, 2011 - excellent full-bodied....at this point, the Cabernet is overwhelming the fruity Malbec. Excellent, after breathing a bit. Nearing the optimal drinking time.

January 16, 2011 - Served with Chateaubriand. Garnet color. Full bouquet with floral and fruit notes. Smooth, rich berry flavors, light tannins. Excellent wine--very easy to drink. Decanted for 45 min to 1 hour as previously and it opened up very nicely. Definitely holding up well.
