July 5, 2019 - Tired and fading. Dried leather. Still a bit of power but no fruit and a clipped finish. Devastating disappointment.

At least that has been my experience with nearly all the Diamond Creeks in my cellar, especially vintages before Al Brounstein passed away and notably the Volcanic Hill and Lake Vineyards. Cheers!
