  January 28, 2023 - Marvelous. Color still dense, deep and dark. Bouquet was sweet and thick from the pull and even sparked a bit of walnut in the first hour--walnut and waffle. The palate took about an hour to relax and deepen. Then it came to the fore, sweetened up and extended. Solid acidity and balance; structured tannin through the finish. A great drink now but could go on a long time and make silky bones. Well done.

  November 25, 2009 - cork slightly exended above top of bottle not a good sign and sure enough wine was partially corked...not horrible but not its best
