February 20, 2024 - Absolutely stunning wine! Decanted 2 hours put back in bottle and took to BYOB dinner. Got even smoother during dinner in the glass. Enjoyed with spaghetti and meatballs. Wine is in the drink zone….so enjoy now!

December 16, 2023 - Aromatic. Still tasting fresh and focused on black cherry and blackberry, some licorice, and underlying baking spice. Fine tannins. Impressed everyone with its balance.

November 23, 2023 - Similar to prior note after a 2 hour double decant & went beautifully with the duck & chicken cooked for our Thanksgiving dinner; outstanding, probably at peak, drink or hold, no rush

October 18, 2023 - Too hot. And yet tasted thin on the palate. Decanted for about an hour before drinking.
