November 26, 2022 - Totally different bottle than the last one I drank 4 years ago. Much better! Same providence. This is fruity with moderately strong tannins, moderate acidity. Mostly black fruit with a bit of red. Does not taste aged. No rust here, in flavor or color. Drinking well and may hold for another 3-5 years or more.

January 13, 2018 - Medium dark red in color. Mild fruit, a bit thin compared to its stronger acidity and tannin. Not particularly enjoyable but not bad. Drinking at its peak now or just past it.

May 31, 2017 - This second bottle drunk with ribeye steak, while still tannic and darkly flavored, gave a much better showing of black and blue fruits.
