November 20, 2023 - Best showing yet over roughly a dozen years of consuming this case. Very fresh strong acidic base. Great depth of flavor, roasted cherry fruit, herbal, cola. The earlier ripeness has evolved into a nice profile of secondaries. This bottle was going strong.

December 25, 2022 - Christmas Diner… alas… my last bottle. Deep red with strong plum aromas. Very tight when poured, an hour later, smooth flavors or black berry and plum. Well balanced. I wish I had more. .

January 23, 2022 - Retail $65? I bought three bottles of this wine online, just a couple of months shy of a decade ago, for just under $40/bottle. The first bottle was Outstanding (but a little stewed), the second was decidedly better, and this last cork? Holy cow--certainly the best of the lot. Bright, dark cherry fruit in the glass with equal parts vanilla, earth, and spice. Yowza. The palate? Even better. Maybe *much* better with rich fruit, zingy acidity, incredible balance, and a lengthy finish. Not much else to clamor for, no? Whoa.
