  August 18, 2019 - In a good spot, still plenty of youthful fruit, but the tannins are moving from "imposing" to "manageable" without a notable decant. Enjoy.

  June 25, 2018 - Pretty solid; blueberry, blackberry, raisin, charred wood. Chewy and succulent, really no flaws. Can't go wrong w/ this LBV.

  February 22, 2017 - Lovely nose - strong scent of blueberries, with subtle aromas of strawberry and raspberry. Palate has notes of blueberry, chocolate, raisin, and cherry. Smooth aftertaste.

  September 20, 2016 - Portugal; 9/18/2016-9/25/2016 (Portugal): 4 months to drink once opened. Reticent nose; palate is full bodied, still quite tannic, plum fruit, red fruit; medium finish. Nice but I would spend my money towards vintage port. 87

  December 29, 2015 - FTLOP Staff Tasting – 2008-2014 Ports (Sammamish, Washington): Extremely dark purple in color with slight clearing on the edges. Medium-bodied, elegant notes. Nice tannins on the mid-palate. Balanced, with tannins popping up on the finish.
