May 20, 2013 - Still drinking very nicely. Well balanced and nice complexity. Still has some life but no real reason to hold back.

May 5, 2012 - A little dusty aroma on pop-and-pour, but that went away after a few minutes of bottle decanting. Very smooth wine with soft tannins. Some of the fruit seems to be gone, but delicious black pepper and smokey palate that still lingers on the back. Still drinking nicely but can't imagine this is going to improve significantly with more aging...probably going to drink my last bottle in the next year or so.

April 12, 2011 - Consistent note with last bottle. These are decent wines. They age nicely. Good fruit, smooth tannin, I should seek out more.

December 30, 2010 - Drank very nice and easy. A good follow up to a KB Keefer. This is ready to go now. Great fruit, smooth integration of wine soft hints of vanilla. Go for it this winter.
