January 18, 2013 - Not as exciting as before--falls a bit flat. Though aeration helped, floral, toast and blackberry aromas are subdued. Good fruit on attack, silkiness to texture, but hollows out and finishes with little fanfare. Solid tannic backbone. On par with price, good, a few notes of interest, but not complete or exciting.

February 21, 2012 - Green pepper, a little minty, red currants, strawberry, intense red fruits; great lift with a tangy finish; medium body and vibrant. Great little red.
