  January 24, 2024 - I tend to agree with Iamandyc's call on this wine, a good wine but it doesn't excite me, no wow factor. For the price point, there are better options. The wine did show better with some air, but nothing to write home about, that's all. 91+/ 92 points.

  October 3, 2022 - Drank at ADP’s house for Rosh. Drinking nicely now but still has plenty of life.

  July 25, 2022 - Drinking beautifully. Well integrated, very smooth and round with a long finish. Bottle wasn't finished and tasted 2 days later (stored in fridge) and there was no degradation.

  May 29, 2022 - Beautiful bottle of wine - this wine has aged nicely over the past 2 years. Absolutely beautiful mouthfeel showing viscosity yet remaining weightless. Classy dark red with touches of darker fruit. Balanced yet showing enough structure to add verve on a long fruit driven finish. The only thing that holds this wine back for me is a lack of secondary flavors. There is plenty of stuffing here to age another 5+ years and for those who still have this in your cellar, your ultimate reward will come down the road. Excellent QPR at $100 or under.
