May 31, 2014 - 4th Saturday Group brown bagger (M/M thelostverse): Opened by Sue with dinner. Dusty currant and subtle herb notes on the nose and palate. Tannins are light but somewhat chalky, and the wine dries out a bit on the finish.

March 12, 2006 - Rich coffee, earth, mushroom, black pepper & anise on first tastes & sniffs @ opening. After some time, some cherry in middle palate, blackberry in back of palate & through finish. After an hour or so, early flavors muted & some chocolate hints through finish. Would rate higher, but was a touch hot, surprised to see 13.9% on label.

December 25, 2004 - Drank on Christmas with beef wellington. Gave this an hour breathing then another hour in the decanter. On opening it was deeply fruity with an intruiging minty nose. Two hours later though the nose was distinctly muted. On the palate it wsa deep and rich with a nice black cherry, blackberry taste. Tannins were not obvious - acidity was a perfect foil to the beef. This was only showing a little bricking at the rim, so I cna only presume this was a little young and closed. Very nice though.
