December 25, 2023 - Vibrant acidity and still drinking beautifully. Lighter on its feet than the Moritz and Brookman 03s.

November 24, 2017 - Consistent with earlier tasting notes albeit starting to show its age a bit, past its prime but still drinking very well. Dark garnet inky color, full bodied, concentrated thick chewy, almost coating the tongue - forward black and blue fruits, ripe black raspberry turns to a tone of spice, hint of cedar and kirsch with a slight metallic/mineral undertone - ends with a full, moderate soft chewy tannin finish.

September 6, 2011 - As before but slightly burnt notes on the taste and caramelized oranges on the nose. Not a deal breaker, but does detract a little. Not sure about storage before purchase...
