May 17, 2015 - Really enjoyed this. More than expected. Very refreshing, which was down to the good acidity. Aged very well, still very fresh. Most of the stuffing has faded but the acidity keeps it going. Lacking complexity but no worse for it. Bottle disappeared quickly which is a good sign

March 10, 2009 - Improved considerably. Great fruit nose, bright acid and fruit on the palate. It has integrated wonderfully since last bottle. Nice tobacco and tannins at the end.

June 24, 2008 - incredible fruit nose -- just busting out all over. Fresh bright flavors with bright acid as well, and significant tartness. Not very well integrated currently. But could develop better over time.
