  From magnum, double decanted three hours before service. Wow, this is an outstanding wine. No real color loss. Balanced acidity and tannins, still showing very well. Lots of black fruits. In this format, easily another 20 years of life.

  Excellent wine. In its peak drinking window, but has at least another 5 years to go. Very Bordeaux-like with dark fruit, cedar and leather flavors.

  Full body. Lots of dark fruit. Still very purple. No bricking. Secondary flavors are barely coming thorough. Good structure. Has a lot of life left to it. Throws off some sediment, needs decanting.

  This is one of the finest wines we have enjoyed in along time. We are not experts but found this wine to be almost impeccable. The complexity of the wine makes it distinctively elegant. The nose offers a soft blueberry/bramble and gives way to a lush rounded entry. It has a fine mid palate that leads to a soft and lingering finish that includes some spice notes.

  Great wine! After being opened for 4 hours, this wine drank beautifully. Spice and dark fruit dominate this wine. Still not at it peak yet, but drinking great right now.
