  November 23, 2023 - This bottle was good. But not outstanding like I expect from Schrader adn this price point. While decanting, as I got down towards the last 5th of the bottle it became very cloudy - almost milky. So I did not pour that portion of the wine into the decanter. Maybe that is where all the flavor was? Never seen that before. Almost like we got the bottom of the barrel of something. Really weird. Diappointing to hang on to a wine this long and then for it be a dud. We followed this with a '18 Lewis and it was preferred by all.

  November 23, 2023 - ‘13 LPV is in an excellent spot right now. Gave it an hour of air and it was singing when we dr an. Do have to admit that the last glass 5 hours later did not hold up.

  November 5, 2023 - Drank over 2 days. Quite powerful upon opening. Lots of promise and even enjoyable. Came back to it 5 hours later and our palates must have died because it was awful. Next day it was very light. Vanilla cherry. Maybe a little lavender. Seems to be ready but no rush. I'd pop and drink up the next one

  September 23, 2023 - Simply outstanding, nothing needs to be said. Ceder I believe on the open. Woody finish. 3 hour decant. Outstanding example. Toned down fruit. My first try of Schrader. I am a fan.
