  April 7, 2024 - Dark berries, oak and some cedar, licorice, graphite, full bodied, good acidity and still youthful tannin. This can easily last another 3 years, but this was unfortunately my last bottle.

  February 25, 2024 - Healthy decant led to a really enjoyable tasting experience.Nicely balanced with flavors of red fruit, pencil shavings, soft leather, tobacco and mild oak. Polished tannins and round mouthfeel.

  November 9, 2022 - Dark berries and some graphite and vanilla in the bouquet. Same on the palate, beautiful acidity and round tannin with a lovely bite.

  January 6, 2022 - Very muted upon opening. Give this 1.5 to 2 hours of air and it's a very solid Bordeaux. A little rough on the finish still, but has classic marine influenced cab nose and some nice sweet tobacco notes. The acidity is good here and enough fruit left, this might go up a point or two over the next 5-10 years. Impressive given that I think this was about $25 on futures.
