  Far better than any previous bottle of this Chad. Cork fine. Wine fab.

  This wine is drinking well with no significant hints of getting old. Strawberry and raspberry fruit is still fresh ahd bright. All the flavors blend well together and show a nice full mouth in the middle. Finish is tangy, and slightly tingly with smooth subtle tannins. Lots more years of good life here

  Drank this with a fried chicken that had heavy black pepper and the wine picked up and highly accentuated the pepper spice on the middle of the tongue. The body was medium-heavy with tart pie cheery and light plum. The middle is where the pepper spice blasted through and the finish had medium tannin that hung on along with the pepper. It went well with the chicken but the pepper flavor was BIG so consider if you will enjoy that if you are having a peppery dish to eat.

  The cork was sunken and somewhat compromised. Gunk collected inside the foil. I was nervous. But Chad was fine. Consistent with my 2014 tasting notes. Lovely and delightful in aromas and palate. I will enjoy the rest of this lot soon, while at its peak.
