June 14, 2020 - Decanted for an hour. Surprisingly fresh on the nose. Opened up slightly over the next three hours, although it didnt change much. Some nice red fruits still showing up. Great acidity which was the most interesting aspect to the wine. The sweet oak finish developed as time went on. Still has another 10+ years easy.

November 26, 2011 - There is a unique quality to this wine. As it opens up there is a port like quality to the nose that ten reveals a delicate elegant and refined glass of soft cherry, rose pedals, and a touch of casis.
