May 21, 2023 - Nicely lifted nose of ripe berry, licorice and sugar beet, flavors are ripe but well integrated with a nice tannic, acidic bite. Cranberry, smoke, leather, citrus peel. One of the best Saxums I’ve had.

October 21, 2022 - From magnum. Just stellar. Smokey and still quite youthful with nice long finish. Maybe the best showing yet for this wine! Sadly my last one.

September 27, 2022 - Similar to the bottle I had 4 months ago and it is just an amazing bottle of wine. Opened 6 hours prior to drinking. The nose is dark berries with hints of chocolate. The palate is comprised of swirling flavors of dark berries, figs, tobacco, tree bark and chocolate. The finish goes on and on and on and on.
