Pop and poured. Opened with strong jammy fruit. With just a bit of air the jammy front end dissipated quickly. This wine won't hold up long. Better drink up.

My last bottle......every one was great. Liked it with food like grilled/BBQ dishes. Opened for a half hour plus. Did not need decanting. Drinking well.....nicely structured with a lot going on fruit wise. However, tannins are resolved.....so, might not last too much longer. Hence, glad I drank all of my bottles while they were more or less in a prime drink window.

Consistent with prior notes. Drinking well, but will not improve and should be drunk over the next year or two. Dark fruit with hint of chocolate. Opened for an hour but did not decant. That was a good strategy.

Sorry to say my last bottle!! Really drinking well, a very nice blend that brings complexity, structure and a good oak fruit balance. Enjoy!!
