October 18, 2020 - One glass...Pretty much dead...unbalanced...significant bricking, all tertiary flavors, no fruits, but shows some lingering structure. The 2017 “drink by” date is probably accurate. Still drinkable, but don’t expect much in the way of enjoyment...will use the rest for cooking

September 16, 2019 - This was 2 years past its drinking window, but has been well cellared and was still drinking well. Slightly high in acidity and not very tannic but still some fruit.

December 2, 2018 - Fully mature, dull medium ruby color, starting to turn garnet. Very muted aromas and flavors, led primarily by tertiary notes, with a small amount of dried red cherries and plums. Structure is still evident. I'd hoped that this might improve since purchased back in 2014; unfortunately, it seems to started the descent into old age.
