January 23, 2018 - Well past its prime when consumed, this bottle had some citrus at the start, and tannins had softened to low-moderate bitiness. But the wine offered nothing beyond its start.

February 18, 2010 - This dark ruby red wine is surprisingly mature, with secondary green tobacco and dark cassis flavors. A fragrant nose of tobacco, cedar, and underbrush with the dark fruit. Maybe a little less grip and length than the 2001 Blackjack, but drinking very well now. I would not wait too long on these.

December 14, 2007 - did not like this at all. Earth and barnyard with dry withering tannis with no fruit to sustain it. Did not finish
