October 14, 2018 - The fruit has faded, which is fine with me, but what remains is a woodiness that is in the middle of breaking down still, and a sourness that I might appreciate but for the wood artifacts. It's possible that this wine might emerge from this middle state and improve, but I doubt it, for my tastes.

February 11, 2018 - Second Sunday Group: Bandol (Frank's): Dark fruit, pepper, blue fruit and caramel tones. Softened tannins. Nice peppery note on the finish. 88+ pts.

May 3, 2015 - Deep purple color. Aromas of dark fruit, blue fruit, roasted game and pepper. Full-bodied with fine-grained tannins and flavors of black fruit, licorice, spice and pepper. A little short on the finish.
