May 21, 2021 - It’s still got it. Wow. Super impressive given the age.

June 5, 2017 - A magnum from my cellar that was enjoyed over three nights-see photos showing price of $57.97. Nose of black cherry, hints of red cherry, black berry, sage, Smith Brothers Cough Drops, and floral notes, same on the palate, big body, delicious, elegant, mouth filling fruit, at its best, tasted great with Fajitas, community holdings show 34 bottles-time to enjoy, long, flavorful finish.

July 13, 2014 - Clear, reddish brown color with lighter brown rim color. Vegetative, leather, tar and spicy aromas Low acids and tannins. Medium well balanced finish

October 26, 2011 - Terrific color and well-balanced. Decanted for some time which really drew out the best elements -- floral on the nose with strong cherry, blackberry on the palate. Tannins were delightfully smooth.
