February 8, 2019 - Still a bit tight, more dark berry than jammy fruit despite 46% Syrah.

April 25, 2018 - I have enjoyed many vintages of this lovely, budget-friendly cuvee, but the 2011 is now definitely past its prime. Wish I hadn't waited so long, but Wine Spectator said drink through 2025? That's ridiculous.

February 28, 2016 - 2011 vintage on 2/28/16. Cellar time has allowed this wine to settle and integrate. Nice pepper and black fruits with velvety mouthfeel. Still could use more cellar time.
