January 7, 2022 - Nice blueberry juice. Quite concentrated. Silky tannins, balanced acidity. Started to decline after 45 min. in decanter. Relatively simple but good.

March 29, 2020 - darker berries, dark chocolate, bell pepper, vanilla, some herb/green and wet stone. palate followed nose pretty closely. tannins are quite fine at this point. finishes a touch hot. structured and balanced enough to go for another 5ish years.

September 5, 2019 - We pnp'd at dinner last night. Fruit on the nose. The palate was dark berries, licorice, and some wood. A moderate finish.

November 9, 2018 - Popped and poured making dinner. Notes of dark fruit and oak on the nose. One the palate, a little disjointed. Notes of tea and fruit on the palate. Enjoyable with a simple Friday night meal but might nieed a little more bottle age (or a formal decant).
