  September 10, 2020 - Drank from cellar with Wally. Light spice and currant nose. Deep dark purple. Soft even presentation middle of oak and touch of blackberry chalk chocolate coffee. Very complex beautiful 20 year old wine. 9.5/10.

  January 1, 2017 - Another gift lost to the back of the cellar for too long. Expected it to be past drinkable, but was pleasantly surprised to find it still standing. Mostly oak on the nose. No tannins or finish at this point, but mildly interesting fruit flavors in mouth. Wish I had tried it in its prime.

  May 23, 2015 - Awesome. Slightly musty, cavernous, black licorice, blueberry opening nose. Honeysuckle later, followed by the marmalade jammy jam. Full, yet silken mouthfeel. Yet later, I'm wading thru a lush cranberry bog. Incredible sour patch kids lead into rock candy flashback about 3 hours after opening, culminating in cotton candy. Strawberry syrup comes oozing out in the aftermath of the fruit bomb.
  
  Definitely not past its prime.

  May 23, 2015 - Deep, rich color. Swirl coats the glass, producing thick legs. Blueberry, black liquerice and some must on the nose. Thick mouthfeel with lush berries, which evolved into honeysuckle and mandarin marmalade. Long finish with sugared cranberry in the aftermath. Worth the wait.

  August 12, 2013 - - Violet color and aromas of violet, blackberry and black currant. It's balanced and has flavours of blackberry and black currant with a light/medium body. Smooth texture with a medium finish - This drank very well. With aromas of black fruit and similiar fruit upon tasting. The wine had little tannins remaining and probably slightly past its peak. It was very smooth and went very quickly.
