March 31, 2023 - Did a 2012-2015 vertical tasting. All were exceptional but the 2014 was the hands down favorite from the group of 8.

July 25, 2020 - Decanted for an hour. I had a bottle in Feb 2017 and rated 91 and notes say needs to mature. Drinking nicely now.

November 16, 2017 - 92-93pts. 2 hours open air decant. Inviting rich ruby in color. Cherry
& Boysenberries dominate. Mild tannic structure. By hour 3 essentially
no alcohol heat. Lingering finish that invites you back for more.1 person found this helpful Comment -
