    October 21, 2021 - Thank you Derrald for the birthday gift, lovely nose showed immediately upon opening, nose of black cherries, hints of herbs and black berry with the smell of old wine barrels, big body, rich, black cherry fruit on the palate, mouth filling fruit, floral accents, delicious over the next 2 hours, elegant, long finish, lovely aftertaste, photo uploaded.

    February 20, 2021 - 34 years and still a hint of black fruit on nose and palate. Tertiary tobacco, leather and deep earthy tones predominate. Smooth, well integrated tannins complete the long finish.

    November 29, 2019 - Very little sentiment, cork in good shape, needed 25 mins in decanter and it was delicious and smooth

    March 27, 2019 - Still showing a hint of primary fruit, but mostly tertiary flavors now. Called it left bank Bordeaux blind, and it’s certainly drinking like one. Delicious!

    April 23, 2017 - Pretty consistent from decant to drink two hours later... well past its prime, just a suggestion of what it was. Still pleasant to drink, soft faded fruit but tasty in a subdued way. Drink with milder foods, even fish.
