  October 6, 2022 - I think that with bottle age these wines are just coming into their own

  February 12, 2022 - Decanted for 15 minutes to allow the initial "funk" to blow off. When it did there were hearty aromas of bright red and dark red fruits. These carried over to the medium bodied palate but were definitely fading. They were joined by earth, spice and exuberant acidity, but no hint of tannins.
  This bottle was not as "alive" as the bottle of 2011 Pick that we enjoyed almost exactly one year ago (2/3/21), and I would recommend drinking sooner than later.

  March 19, 2020 - This was a pleasant surprise. I found it in my wine fridge. Sharp cherry flavor with a hint of underripe strawberry and raspberry. There is a nice bit of acidity with some spice on the finish.

  June 3, 2018 - Decanted 1 hr. Wonderful fragrant nose. Consistent tastes of blueberry, blackberry, dark cherry. Smooth on the tongue. Drinking well now. Delicious.

  October 21, 2017 - Nice GSM style blend here, although a little different that what I was expecting. Nose of vanilla, flowers, and raspberries. Similar flavor profile with plum and tart raspberry fruit on the palate with a creamy texture to it. Definitely has that core of vanilla along with red licorice. Medium acidity, nice finish.
