October 27, 2023 - Not sure how to rank this. Tasted along with 50 other wines, all exceptional. This came across as balanced - fruit, tannins, everything. There wasn't a single thing that jumped out, but that's what made it great, especially compared to other wines. Great wine.

September 16, 2023 - A bottle that was tucked away -- we forgot about it! An older style, medium bodied, actually decent tannins that dissipated as it was open. Nice to try!

September 8, 2023 - Part of a 2008 to 2010 dinner with my wine group. This was my favorite, although by vote, not the group favorite. Opened, but not decanted for over 45 minutes before pouring. Once again the cork broke and I had to work some magic to get the bottle open without ending up with cork in the wine! I've had this happen frequently with Anderson's wines from the mid 2000s. I'm not sure why. Anyway, full bodied with a long finish.
