  April 2, 2009 - Drank this over a 3 day period. Day 1: Wine has an aroma of earth and dark fruit, along w/dark chocolate. Earth not good, poopy as Gary V. is so fond of saying.
  Wine is full bodied, and tastes good, chewy chocolate and some cedar. This is one of the better bottles from this case purchased 2 years ago. Day 2: This wine is deflating, going south quickly. Had a glass, would call it 83 +. Day 3: Dumped, wasn't in the mood for a tired, poopy experience. Have a couple left, will try and consume w/somebody willing to be a guinea pig....

  February 12, 2009 - Popped and poured, down to last couple of bottles of case purchased two years ago. Notes consistent w/previous bottles...solid economy cabernet.

  December 19, 2008 - Popped and poured 12/18, nose of Chilean funk, earth, barnyard. Medium bodied w/chocolate and assorted dark fruits. Day 2 has opened more, fuller body and dark chocolate notes stand out.
