February 4, 2020 - This had good concentration, thick black fruit, almost port-like. and a bit out of balance. Felt a bit muddled and not as inviting as I had hoped. Over-priced. 91+pts

September 4, 2018 - Nose of black berry, black cherry and black currant, same on the palate, big body, very tasty, tannins resolved, time to enjoy, mouth filling fruit, ripe fruit, and a long flavorful finish.
