June 27, 2015 - My final bottle of 8. Still showing nicely, but the slow decline over the years continues ... this was best when I first had it at El Gaucho, some time ago. It may drink fine for you over the next few years, but I'd start popping these now just in case.

March 1, 2014 - We had this with grilled ribeye on 3/1/14. It had a wonderful, expressive bouquet of cassis, blueberry, vanilla and spice. The palate was taut, layered and generous with flavors of cassis, blueberry, vanilla, spice, mocha and char.
