July 14, 2023 - Definitely done, but in a weird and still drinkable way. All the fruit is completely gone. But still has great color, strong earthy tones, and tons of tannins No fruit; all earthiness and tannins

December 13, 2021 - Solid cab in its prime. Did half bottle first night and vacuum sealed. But somehow turned quickly overnight. Bummer.

August 29, 2021 - I opened the bottle and had with a steak. Notes of vanilla, earth and tobacco. Paired well with my steak, had 2 glasses. Did not realize that it needed decanting, but drank the rest the next day with chicken pot pie and it was a great pairing. The extra air really helped, it was plummy and delicious. I will decant my last bottle before drinking.
