  September 3, 2018 - Decanted 1.5 hours, drank over 1.5 hours. Big blue & black fruits, dense yet smooth, though still young. Delicious now but will reward much more with time.

I also found finesse here, again back to how all of the core parts of the wine were in tune to the other. When I did one final pour right before the end of dinner, the wine had started to coil and tighten, losing some of the openness that it initially showed. In total, this bottle showed me a real sense of class and I can see why it is regarded like it is.

  June 16, 2017 - Absolute knockout wine. Nose with wonderful complex and ever changing notes of dark fruit including blackberry and maybe some raspberry along with a touch of spice and toasted oak. Palate medium to full bodied, well balanced with silky tannins and appropriate acidity. Long finish. Drinking well now but if I had another I'd wait 2-3 more years.

  August 14, 2016 - Gave it a couple of hours of air and then decanted before serving. Fantastic.
