May 12, 2022 - Still drinking beautifully. PnP, a little heat went away after 20 minutes. Dark, almost opaque. Fruit forward. Dark cherry, leather. Surprised at how nice this was after seeing other notes.
July 15, 2019 - Delicous. Still big and bold, full of black fruit, well integrated tannins and moderate acidity. You wouldn't guess the age or price point given how well it's drinking right now.
November 18, 2017 - Drinking great in November 2017. Rich, balanced medium acidity and tannins. Fruit is still solid and there is a little earthiness.
April 18, 2016 - OK for the big extracted fruit crowd. Tannins standing up so far. Drink or hold for up to 2 years.
September 10, 2015 - Great juice here boys, berries plums, chocolate really soft tannins to deal with a smooth finish. I have 1 bottle left hope you guys enjoy this critics say the 2012 is even better.
August 14, 2014 - Dark ruby red with light aromas of dark fruit. Rich, smooth and luscious on the palate with nice fruit forward flavors.
June 16, 2014 - Pleasant enough but tasted alongside the '03 Duhart Milon which was completely superior in every way. This cab is a bit light and fruit-forward and not the last word on complexity. It's likable but pretty forgettable. Not really worth the price of admission.
Following the above initial assessment, this is much better on the 2nd day. This is now fuller, richer, more penetrating and persistent, with a suave character. The fruit tones are still a bit simple, but more complete and evolved.
April 10, 2014 - Black cherry and chocolate.
February 8, 2014 - Deep ruby red with aromas of dark berries and some vanilla. It rich in dark berries, blueberries and a little jammy with a bigger than expected finish.
July 24, 2013 - A bit thin for a cab. Smooth texture and soft but lacks complexity. Expected more...
