April 16, 2021 - Decanted for over an hour. Medium-dark garnet/brick red in colour. Nose of ripe blackberries with hints of fresh leather and some cassis. Good amount of tobacco infused black and red berries on the palate with some espresso at the end. Medium+ bodied with a medium+ finish. Still excellent since I first popped a bottle in 2012 and I think this has at least 5 more years of life to it. This is my last bottle, unfortunately.

April 6, 2021 - It’s been a long time since I last checked in on this (almost 9 years ago!) and I am very happy to report that this wine is not only very much alive, it’s absolutely strutting! Popped and poured. Fully open for business at this point with currants, black berry preserves, tobacco, and earth on the nose. On the palate, black currants, black cherry, a hint of baking spice, and black olive. Beautiful texture. The tannins are almost completely integrated. I say almost because time coaxes the tannins out! Good acid too which leads me to believe this will very likely drink well for many years to come though, I suspect this is more or less at peak.

December 30, 2019 - Got slayed by the 2005 York Creek we had alongside it, but a gorgeous bottle nonetheless (with a lot more runway to it than the York Creek, too).
