September 25, 2023 - A very solid Bordeaux blend. Aging a little weak.

December 21, 2022 - It’s…fine. Still high acid, fading primary fruit but no tertiary characteristics. Maybe just in an in between place.

October 31, 2022 - A little bricking and dark ruby color. Some BO, light soy sauce, hint of cherry on the nose. Typical aged cab flavors, some blackberry and plum on the palate with 35-40 sec finish. At the auction price this was quite nice given the age, while QPR at full retail would not have been so great. I think it may be a tad past prime for my tastes as I actually like the fresher fruitier flavors of younger Oracle.
