    December 16, 2023 - Quite drinkable in a mature style. No longer at peak, but showing an interesting mixture of fruit, acidity with light tannins.

    November 12, 2022 - Dang good wine! Perfect with rack of lamb. Tons of beautiful tertiary flavors with good acidity moving it forward

    April 18, 2020 - Wow! What a beautiful old Rioja. Reminds me somewhat of old Borolo.

    March 16, 2019 - Rioja & Rhône(style): Mid garnet with a browning rim. Moderately rich, mature Rioja, richer than 904 or Tondo, but not at CVNE VR levels. Very 73. Some orange peel, soft red fruit and gently worn leather. Long. Holds well. This is lovely — not worth holding on any longer, it’s gorgeous. ****

    July 30, 2017 - Very brick-ish color. Incense, a little vanilla, maybe a little funk in the smell. Medium body. A little acidity still there. Medium body.
