February 14, 2024 - Gorgeous very deep ruby color. Navel oranges dominate on the nose. Tasty but with an outsized alcoholic presence with notes of strawberries and oranges. A bit of funk in the finish .

February 13, 2021 - I have to agree with the Lyrical Lawyer this is a good wine that still has more time. Still bright in both color and fruit. I regret that this is my last 2008.

December 28, 2020 - Absolutely fantastic bottle of wine...many people said it had little life left- could not disagree more- Luscious mouthful, smooth tannins but were present, loaded with black fruit - had it with meats and cheese for bmore Xmas
