  November 29, 2021 - According to CellarTracker this wine is passed it’s prime. They say it should have been opened in 2011. We drank this last night (November 2021) and it was delicious. Tasted very jammy with notes of berries, vanilla, oak, and tobacco. The wine was a beautiful deep garnet. Served with a choice prime NY strip.

  October 27, 2012 - Nice color with grapey bouquet but extremely jammy on the palate with cooked prune and tar-like grape flavors. I don't think this was a flawed bottle but merely way past it's peak.

  August 1, 2012 - Very pure blueberry and blackberry with a silky mouthfeel. Tannins are starting to resolve. Initially tasted of prunes, but a little air brought out the dark fruit. Drinking very nice right now and probably over the next year or so. No evidence of 15.5%.
