  November 1, 2021 - Pale garnet with significantly browning and fading edges. Tannins completely resolved, whilst with red floral and cranberry aromas and flavours, as well as clove and pepper spices, whilst light and elegant. Lacking in the finish though perhaps due to age

  April 9, 2021 - Pale garnet. Quite a pronounced nose led by flowers, and ripe red cherry, hint of cloves, and a mushroom fungal feel. Still having fresh acids whilst tannins completely resolved, and a lean mouthfeel. Flavours of tart cherry, moss, twigs, mushrooms and herbs, then a finish that was quite short. A wine that’s over the hill, and struggling to preserve whatever fruits left, but I still find it enjoyable nevertheless

  May 1, 2010 - Popped and poured. The nose was pretty classic mature Bordeaux with berries, leather, earth, spice and some basil/mint type notes. Palate showed some nice cherry fruit with medium body weight and an easy finish. Wine started to fade after about an hour in the glass and became a little sour/bitter on the finish. I was expecting nothing, but was pleasantly surprised.

  April 3, 2005 - Gone gone gone. Probably peaked 10 years ago. Was still moderately drinkable, but very amber in color. Left in decantur for almost 2 hours, was almost like water. Oh well, bought it at a charity function, atleast the charity got something out of it!
