March 27, 2020 - drank in the past couple of weeks 2 different bottles hoping for something to change, either it's just not my taste or they are past their drinking life

April 5, 2014 - Interesting "stink" of pine, soil, glycerin, dried and stewed fruit and gaminess I couldn't put my finger on. Taste of strawberry, plum and some dark fruit in the back. This is still holding up well and probably still has 2-3 more years

April 23, 2009 - This wine, ten years out, is still rocking. As Adam puts it, "drinks like a wine half its age". The recommended consumption date is way off on this -- it's '09 and the wine seems like it could take 5+ years easy.
