April 26, 2023 - I neither like nor dislike this one. I guess I accept it. Aged too long, I think. No body or tannin left. However, the underlying bright red fruits are still quite present. There is a note of almost-but-not-quite-tart raspberries here.

June 11, 2021 - the wine, by the time I drank it, had turned harsh. The heavy tannins were gone and there was a nice hint of fruit of what was once there.

July 1, 2018 - Nice aroma of cherry. Balanced, not a lot of complexity or depth, but good.

April 8, 2017 - Big tannins. Excellent fruit. Needs serious descanting and then it opens up nicely.

February 6, 2017 - Cherries, licorice, and blackberries make up the nose. The body is light with moderate tannins and a medium-long finish. Decent after having decanted for over two hours.
