September 23, 2018 - This wine is on the downhill but still drinking fairly well. Aroma of underipe strawberries, cassis, sage, dust, and vermouth. Tannin is completely resolved, flavors of plum, blackberry, and black tea. Nice acidity and finish lingers but is light. Drink them sooner than later!

November 20, 2016 - It's drinking great now... opens up in 15 minutes... very dark, lots of crystals on the cork, so don't pour out the last little bit as it will have the tartrate crystals in the wine...good stuff for this wine! Nose - just delicious - some cola and dark cherry and earthiness.. nice!
Dark cherry, light berry flavors some caramel and cola, with a middle finish. This is drinking correctly now! my last bottle... sniff. -

April 15, 2016 - Updated from my last drink - still Dark red color; with much crystallization on the cork and sediment on the neck. PnP, opened nicely and easily. Found tastes of cola, and some dark cherry, had a nice sweet undercurrent, along with hints of caramel, everyone found this vintage delicious (02,03,04 flight). Finish was middle of the road, not much acidity. Overall and easy and pleasant drinking wine.
