October 23, 2019 - Holy grip Batman.... This could cellar forever, but the color says different. Dark with brickishness creeping to the edge of the glass. The taste profile does say it'll last- but upon review, a airator and a coffee filter... It's still is amazing but so much sediment! And sediment is fine as coffee filter didn't even erradicate. This could be too much for some as it was borderline for me. Still liked this, but don't know solution to it's puzzle? I guess drink earlier, a year to three.

December 29, 2016 - Let me start by saying I opened this too early. If I had more, I'd wait 2-3 years at least. Dark fruits dominate the nose, with some wet earth and sage. These notes, along with a touch of leather, come through on the palate. Decent length, but nondescript, finish. This could evolve into a special wine...or it could just remain stuck where it is.

Of dark fruit, shame they can't shine -
