January 24, 2012 - Drinking well now, merlot component is quite prominent. I'd be drinking sooner rather than later.

March 4, 2010 - Gala Dinner with Joachim Wissler *** & Henschke (Rheingau Gourmet & Wine Festival Hattenheim, Germany): Again a Rhône blend, but a clear step up. Pepper and spices, velvety, purple fruit, finely grained tannins, superior length. Now - 2015.
