  Last bottle of a 6 pack and best of all. Several years ago I thought it was waning and loosing its limited integration and limited complexity. Now nicely integrated darker red fruit with a hint of pleasant bret. Balanced tannins. Not super complex but considering it's price point I wish I had more and saved the others for now (but who would have known...).

  Red fruit with a touch of tartness. Well integrated. Drinking well now. Not profound but ok all around. Lacks a bit of traditional old world style.

  Just opened. Fairly thick and rich. No brett in this bottle (a previous bottle that I tasted was affected by brett). OK but not great.

  Best this wine has ever shown! Pleasant Bret coming through on the nose. The tartness which was almost but not quite ruining the experience is about gone. Integrated. Not hugely complex but now for the price it was a nice surprise. Still have 2 more and curious how they will evolve over the next few years.
