April 13, 2020 - A nose of dark fruits and some spice, dark garnet in color. A full bodied Cab with cassis, plum, blackberry, with a spiced finish, at or near peak, still very good. www.winelx.com

March 30, 2018 - Nice but not great. Muted nose but hints of black fruits and vanilla. Same on the palate, but the flavors died mid-palate and left a thin finish. Not getting any younger, time to drink soon.

May 27, 2017 - Had with porterhouse and it complemented quite well and even better with dark chocolate vanilla caramels for desert.
Lots of dark fruit - black cherry and blackberry on the nose. Very soft tannins with cherry and a hint of tobacco with a peppery finish.
Highly recommended and can't wait for the appropriate occasion to consume the last of these in my cellar. -

January 14, 2017 - I'm not sure what's going on here... First 2 bottles were great (October/November 2016), but the last 2 seemed to have lost the fruit - leaving a tannic, unbalanced finish. Not terrible, but not great. I have 5 more and not sure what to do - drink or hold.

January 7, 2017 - Third of nine bottles. Not as impressive as first two. This one seems to have lost its fruit.
