  September 27, 2022 - This wine does not fit my palate; seems out of balance and fruit forward; not my kind of wine.

  September 10, 2022 - In the four years since my last bottle there has been little evident aging in terms of colour or aromatics
  
  On the palate it seems denser, with tannins more chewy and pervasive. Solid acidity moderates the power, but definitely a wine requiring solid food accompaniment

  October 9, 2019 - Very disappointing. First thing that hits me on this wine is the alcohol. Is this hard alcohol or wine? Way out of balance. Drying tannins. Very harsh. Not enough fruit to compete with the alcohol and oak. Medium short finish.

  Spicy, moderate intensity, underlies long wide tannins finishing with long taut cherries
