  November 8, 2020 - Tonight, the vanilla and warm baking spices were a bit more pronounced, no doubt because of a variety of food it was accompanying. You can really appreciate the way the oak compliments the cherry and chocolate core of the wine.

  August 29, 2020 - Smooth and excellently balanced. Red fruit juice. Toasty sugar flavors like overdone sugar cookies with vanilla and warm spice. Gentle cherry and milk chocolate on the finish. Marvelous.

  January 1, 2016 - I thought this wine was spectacular despite a tough vintage. In a blind tasting i might mistake for Paulliac. Great nose that balances tar, charcoal with great dark berries. Great balance on the palate with a 15-20 second finish. I didn't decant. I think this wine would warrant a higher score even than a 93, but i do question its ability to age gracefully in such a tough vintage.
