    June 23, 2023 - Although the wine was technically past its peak, this Bordeaux blend, made from 84% Cab, 5% Cab Franc, 6% Merlot, 3% Malbec, & 2% Petit Verdot grapes, was flavorful, smooth, and had an elegant & silky finish. Well balanced & structured the wine still had much to offer, but probably has a limited number of years remaining. Drink now. Thoroughly enjoyed drinking this 23 year old wine.

    May 5, 2023 - Outstanding wine. Relaxed tannins, balanced fruit, great finish.

    My last tasting note scored it an 88. There was something different about this bottle than the last one. Or maybe I was just having a bad day. 🧐

    February 20, 2022 - I have had bottles of Opus that I thoroughly enjoyed. This was not one of them. It was not bad, but it was not Opus level. it was just too restrained. I couldn’t pick out anything to keep my attention. It was a bit Chalky to me.

    December 21, 2021 - Medium rudy in colour. Pronounced nose intensity with notes of black fruits, black currant cassis, toast, spices, vanilla, mushroom. Medium+ acidity and medium tannin. Tannin integrated and velvety. Smooth and easy drinking.
