October 1, 2021 - 醒酒一小时，淡宝石红色，闻香紫罗兰，车厘子，皮革和肉味，还有淡淡的酱味，香气略显老态，入口酸度高，单宁细腻如粉，酒液咸，梗香，樱桃一类红果香气，混合着香料的辛辣感，后段捕捉到橡木桶的奶油香甜，余味特别漂亮，玫瑰花瓣，小红果，混合着香草，细腻悠长。前半小时一直很沉闷，香气普通，口感单薄，醒酒一小时后才完全打开，在中后段开始绵绵不断地输出，香气变得丰富多变，收尾的口感也变得细腻柔和，从刚开始的朴实单调变得更加芳香甜美，整个酒的质量一下提升一个档次，和那些平庸的黑皮诺区分开来。

September 7, 2019 - From memory. Pop and poured. Took about 2 hours open to really get going and best about 3-4 hours after opening. Elegant red and black fruits with a nice herbs accented with mild green stems, lovely minerality and some back end tannins. But it the balance as everything started to knit together toward the 4 h mark. Drinkable now but I imagine that it will be much better in another 5 years or more when it develops more complexity.

August 31, 2014 - Clear, crimson, pink-white rim, very slow and sparse tears
Clean, low intensity, aromas of salmon berries, red licorice, strawberries, and a hint of marmite
Dry, med- body, med+ alcohol, med tannins, media- acidity, further tastes of bitter cherries, leather, unripened strawberries, red currants, slight youthfulness, short finish
