December 5, 2020 - Dark, lush fruit. Still has life, but I don’t see it getting better from here. Drink up.

December 6, 2019 - Got better with some air. Lots going on in this complex, tasty SMG, from rich red fruit (plum and blackberry) to some smoke.

April 6, 2018 - Very tastey right now, still has some back bone that's holding everything together. It drank well over a 3 hour period, with nice vibrant red fruits. Near the end of the bottle the wine started getting a little jammy, but its forgivable. Good stuff.

January 15, 2018 - Can definitely taste the syrah in this blend with its telltale meatiness. Very polished and smooth at this stage in its life with gentle tannins on the finish. Drinking well - not sure there's an upside to more horizontal time. Good wine.
