November 4, 2019 - flat and one dimensional. Past its prime.

August 2, 2017 - This wine was stored horribly -- in the bottom of my office file cabinet for 4 years, forgotten under some papers. But this evening it really drank beautifully, especially considering its past. Could have mistaken it for an entry-level Priorat, with nice purity of fruit (raspberries), a hint of tannins, and a long finish. Not what I expected!

February 2, 2017 - This was a fun well made wine. Not sure it will last much longer before the downturn but drinking great now. Slowly improved over 4 days.
