February 16, 2024 - Dried cranberry, blackberry, radish, plum, raisin. Soft tannins, crisp acidity, long finish and nicely balanced. but didn’t meet expectations, would have like to have tried this a few years ago

August 26, 2023 - I was a tad worried this might have aged out when I opened it. Boy was I wrong I’m positive it has several more good years ahead but alas I’ll never know as this was my last 2009. Fabulous nose. Full of fruit still along with tertiary aromas. Blackberry, dark plum, raisins, leather, earthy, Forrest floor. Very smooth tannins, crisp acid. Long enjoyable finish with a blackberry compote flavor lingering.

October 22, 2022 - Took 30 minutes to open but definitely time for me to drink through these. Very nice finish with flavors of dark fruit and chocolate. Probably not at it prime any longer.
