  I have not tried a bottle in almost 6 years and it is still drinking very nicely. Opened and slow ox'd for two hours. The nose is dark red fruit, the palate is dark cherry, red plums, tobacco and hints of chocolate. The finish was moderate to long. Still has some years ahead of it.

  I wrote a fairly harsh note on this wine 6 years ago. While those criticsms still stand, this wine has hit 12 years with stride and I wouldn’t be surprised to see it thriving at 20. The acidity is doing its job admirably. Overripe but not offensively so. Good concentration. Drinking well now with a window that should be wide open until at least 2024.

  Drinking extremely well and will hit the 10 year mark no problem. No specific notes per se but I remember good fruit, balance, and supple tannins. Wish I had more. 94 pts. PJP 2016.

  We pnp'd through a vintorio, dark fruit on the nose, the palate is dark berries, currants, tree bark, red meat and some spice. A nice long finish.

  No detailed notes. Relatively rich in body with good structure. Seemed young next to a 2002 Hess Mt. Veeder Cab Sauvignon.
