March 13, 2022 - PnP. No formal notes. Well balanced mature bouquet, still fruit and well integrated oak. On the austere linear side, but works fine with the roasted chicken. Drink now - onwards. Has come together considerably since last visit in 2014!

April 15, 2021 - No formal notes. Surprisingly fruit-forward for its age, seems more new world styled. Likely at, around, peak.
