  November 30, 2010 - Drank for my birthday. This was much better than my last bottle and again drinking nicely. One left to consume over the next year or so.

  August 19, 2010 - Same notes as before...solidly good cab, drink up. We'll drink our last soon. Max Power is right, give it plenty of time, at least two hours, to open before drinking.

  July 20, 2010 - This was not nearly as good as my last bottle. It had a barnyard funk that never blew off and had a slight brett taste. I think these have peaked and would drink up. i have two left and I will drink them in the near future.

  June 17, 2010 - Just had the '03 Parallel after the '07 last Saturday, and the '06 last night (Wednesday). The '07 was my wine of the night at a quarterly wine comparison against the '07 Caymus, '07 Isosceles, '07 Coho Headwaters, and '07 Kalinda. The '03 tonight was quite closed initially, took 1.5 hours to open up and start singing. A nice wine, smooth, with grippy tannins and excellent finish, but was a bit short of the upfront fruit found on the '06 and '07 vintages. Very good, but just short of very great. I paid $30 for 6 of these, will probably look to add to the '06 or '07 vintages that can be found in the $40 to $50 range.
