April 9, 2021 - I was surprised this was still drinking well for about an hour. Too big for me but did pair well with bbq steaks

December 13, 2014 - Surprisingy good. Cork was damaged and the wine needed to be decanted. Heavy sedament.
Wine was flavoursome with a decent boquet.
The wine looks purple colored. The legs are medium. There is heavy sediment in the bottle. The body is full. The wine has fleshy texture. The wine finishes short. The wine has low acidity. -

October 12, 2014 - Powerful nose, full bodied wine with well integrated tannin and plenty of red/ black fruit as well as some secondary notes. Drinks really well with red meat.
