  drank this magnum across several nights in december.
  
  drank the first "half" on nights one and two, and it still seemed a bit tight right at the outset. decanting helped, and the "leftover" portion on night two had also developed nicely.
  
  we "poured off" half of the bottle into a storage 750 that we opened several nights later, and it was better than the initial portion.
  
  nice and enjoyable. fruit still intact. probably just past its peak. solid overall, just not quite good as the previous bottle from 2018.

  Dragged this out of the cellar to have with some Spanish style pork dish. I figured this is one of my higher-end wines after I consumed until I looked it up on my celler tracker. outstanding for price point

  What a difference a year or two in the bottle made with this one. Really nice, despite being very highly extracted. This one went in a flash towards the end of a dinner party. Decent buy at $20 from WTSO.

  surprising amount of life left in this one. it's getting a bit dry as the fruit subsides, but there's a healthy dose of spice and earth and still a bit of juicy red fruit... didn't get as much dark fruit from this bottle as some of the other tasting notes / writers have mentioned. the group of us polished off this magnum ahead of some of the other bottles we opened at the same time. thoroughly tasty.
