October 22, 2021 - My only wish is that I had more. Stunning straight after pulling the cork. Drank over 2.5 hours; faded ever so slightly towards the end, but was still outstanding. Velvet smooth in the mouth. Strong nose still showing plenty of life. I wouldn't rush to drink out of fear for it fading, but I would rush to drink because it was just that good. Time to start hunting for more.

September 29, 2017 - Excellent. Wonderful bouquet, we spent 30 minutes drinking in the wonderful aroma...the smell of Northern California during crush captured in bottle. And the taste was sublime.
