August 27, 2017 - A seriously meh bottle, not worth the calories. Bummer, after all the insider hype about Clark, back in the day. Evan a regional 09 should have some umph after 8 years. Unfortunately, two more in the cellar.

December 18, 2016 - Opened two days ago. Stoney and edgy the first two days. Stored with cork in on the counter, about 60 degrees, it's pleasantly relaxed this evening, giving decent cosetting gloss on the tongue, suggesting the presence of fruit, which, however, still doesn't manifest itself yet in aroma or flavor. Okay for a regional; may aspire to greater things in a couple or three years. Right now, however, is not the ideal moment to open this bottle for pleasure, imho.

July 4, 2016 - Cola: medium to dark ruby, without orange rims. Taste: red and black cherries, sous bois, slightly peppery. Noticeable tannins, probably from stems, which made it a bit bitter. At the second day a bit more fruit, but also a bit more burning. Alcohol 13%. Nice wine, but a bit to “stemmy” for me. (87-)88.

January 1, 2016 - Cork, 13% alc. Opaque dark red-black, tending to bricking on the rim.
Dusty, spicy, leafy blueberry and cherry.
Berries, graphite, and smoke on the palate, joined by some creamy vanilla oak.
Opinion: Not particularly memorable. -

December 7, 2015 - This starts off reasonably smooth and pleasant texturally, though fruit flavors are hiding. After a night in the open bottle, the fruit shows itself and the wine is delicious and very classy for a regional. Now I wish I'd bought some of Mr. Clark's commune wines, too.
