    November 4, 2012 - 16th Annual Lyon 10 Year Retrospective (Same Old Place): Stood out for its ripeness. Black cherry and plum, with a cinnamon note. Long mellow finish. Similar on day two, 91pts.

    November 17, 2010 - A nice wine. Sweet, simple fruit; slightly hot nose, nice, darkish fruit length that's also slightly warm but fairly extended. The mouth is well balanced, and a bit showy. The wine is fairly well put together. I liked it more when it was open for 5 minutes than now, having been opened for a few hours.

    April 3, 2009 - Finally got around to this one. Picked two up in 2006. Plastic cork(??). Light sediment. Took a few hours to come around but showing cherry and dirt nose, red fruit palate. Good acidity but not obtrusive. Paired with poached rainbow trout.

    December 3, 2008 - I would mostly agree with Parker on his assessment of this wine. I did not think it had copius tannins.
