  Really outstanding CDP and an absolute joy to drink, delightful, fresh, vibrant fruit, a really lovely mouthfee, l and a silky finish that had a decent amount of length. This wine had a great melange of red berries, some plum, a bit of cedar, and some nice spice elements. This was a good wine with excellent pedigree. I will be looking for more of it.

  Heater week; 3/8/2024-3/17/2024 (Chicago, IL): Not quite my style. A bit too dark and too much licorice root here for me. Sweet, bordering on sappy, with a bit of oak astringency as well.

  Guest somm with a work colleague for the evening - supplied wine from our cellars for a work dinner (Pro Bono, Palo Alto CA): First red of the evening. Supplied from Robin's cellar. Decanted about 90 minutes.
  
  Bright garnet color, not separation. Nose showing red fruits, spice. Palate of blackberry, cherry, plum, cola. Spice and fruit cake. Texture is viscous and jammy at this stage, spices through the mid palate. Full body, long finish.
  
  Great showing on this evening. Still young, should evolve nicely over the next decade.

  This was a real step up from the one I had before. Felt so accomplished, aloof, reserved but also hedonistic in its own way. There is a backbone and firmness but also so expressive with beautiful, lively fruit. Glad I've a couple more.
