Double decanted a few hours ahead of xmas dinner (cornish game hen with stuffing and roasted squash). Wine of the weekend in a crowded field--great concentration and roundness, good integration of new French barrel, length and palate presence/intensity both exceptional. One bottle left in storage--it'll stay there for a few more years.

Opened for 2+ hours before drinking. Vibrant wine with good length. Very smooth. This is great value. Will probaly be more approachable and more interesting in another 12 months. Very good

Already open for business. Black tea, rosehip, on a feminine side. Yum.

Bright crimson; cherried, spicy, fragrant; velvety, sappy, stylish; good grip on finish.

Sorry to say a second bottle of this disappointed. Tarter, less focused. Decent, but.
