December 7, 2023 - Might have gotten a 94 if I was eating lasagne!
But it was still tasty with spicy napa cabbage and T bone.
Smooth tannins. Tobacco, dried roses, dried cherries.

May 20, 2023 - Awesome bottle of wine which has aged brilliantly. Decanted off substantial sediment. Nice dark fruit, dried fruit, and still juicy. Aged mellowed tannins and acidity provided balance.
