April 6, 2024 - This bottle, while delicious, was a little more advanced than prior bottles. Sweet fruit and full bodied, but showing more tertiary flavors than in the past.

March 2, 2024 - Popped and poured sediment removed, freaking scrumptious. I knew the O2’s were gonna last a long time from Napa and Sonoma.

August 14, 2023 - From magnum. Bravo. Still tannins present, and loaded with delicious fruit. Wish I had a lot more of the 2002 Etude cab, as this will be drinking well for another 10 years I’d guess.

February 19, 2023 - A dynamite 2002 Etude cab. Dark, with no browning. Delicious flavors of blueberry and blackberry, carried forward from the similar nose. Had a glass of the remaining half-bottle the next day at it was at least as good - the fruit being perhaps a bit sweeter. Drinking at peak!

February 6, 2023 - From half bottle. Quite tasty after a quick decant. Good balance, despite some 02 ripeness (read heat). Good tertiary development. I might hold in 750, though this is showing quite well in 375ml.
