  March 1, 2024 - Yumbo! Wondering if it needs to decant but opening flavor so good.

  November 4, 2023 - An explosive and big wine. First one of these I've had in a long long time. Big black and blue fruit with tons of power; however, decanted for 2 hours so it got in its groove after lots of air. Velvet, richness but balanced to not be too overpowering. Long finish. Excellent

  October 22, 2023 - USA 2013 tasting by Sander (By SS @ De Ertepeller in Papendrecht): This is very extraordinary and special and extremely beautiful. Dark berries, cedar, oak, concentrated and yet elegant in the bouquet. On the palate a mouth full of everything, some lovely acidity and a beautiful touch of sweetness. This wine is very close to perfection.

  July 23, 2023 - On initial opening we thought the wine had entered a dormant phase. The nose was almost entirely shut down. However, over time we slowly experienced this wine evolving in the glass and into something quite special. I've had Napa Cabs more complex than this wine, but none so well integrated. Everything was in perfect harmony, which I think led to a holistic drinking experience and something a little unusual. At 15.5% ABV there was some initial heat on the nose and palate that dissipated over time. It paired beautifully with Prime NY Strips, bringing out the best in both the meat and this Cab.
  
  Overall, I was hoping for a bit more complexity. That said, it was the overall harmony that was so impressive. Next time I'll decant for at least 2 hours prior to consumption in the hopes of gaining that complexity.
