November 24, 2022 - Phenomenal. This is well outside the CT window but this bottle has not lost a thing. Hour decant and has great fruit. Opens up over the next couple hours.

May 6, 2012 - Dark, black fruit, earthy undertone, full bodied. Opened up nicely to be very smooth, with a nice long finish. I'm just sorry this was my last bottle.

June 5, 2011 - Drank another of these about 1 week ago and this bottle was a lot better. Cork disintegrated into a mess. Seems to be common with these bottles I got on winebid. Some wood on the nose with muted fruit. So not really my style, but what really made an impression on me was how integrated the tannins were. Drinking well, but I am thinking that it is time to drink these up.
