August 11, 2013 - Bottle opened 2 days ago and held under VacuVin. Fruit has faded somewhat, and remaining acidity makes it more astringent. But still good to drink with food. Following an expected scenario, so no change in score. But this is definitely for drinking now.

August 9, 2013 - Final bottle discovered in my cellar, a year past the CT's suggested drinking period. But still going strong. The tannins have softened, but the fruit is still fresh and is balanced by good acidity. Bravo! But drink up and enjoy.
