July 9, 2022 - Balanced, nice finish, and smooth. Paired w- fried chicken, fois grois, and mashed potatoes at mom's. Dinner w-Heekyung and mom. I really liked the maturity of this wine, still a nice deep purple color, but don't think it will improve.

June 2, 2021 - Near perfect. At dinner with an owner of a paso winery and he raved. Also had 2016 downstream which was also great but I must admit this was better. Near pop
