May 21, 2022 - Thought it was drinking very nicely. Nice fruit, not tannic. Only the one bottle so not able to compare bottle to bottle but think it is probably in its prime.

October 18, 2014 - Picked this up several years ago and have been sitting on it ever since. Popped a bottle at a steak house tonight and was amazed at how wonderfully it has aged. Tannins have really mellowed and the fruit is still quite prominent. If you have some of this don't be afraid to drink it as it is showing really quite well at the moment. I'd bet it still has a lot of life left in it as well. A solid 94 point wine.
