October 1, 2018 - This wine is still closed. I accessd a glass thru a Coravin of my last bottle. Its color and bouquet is nice, just the wine is tight and tannic on the mid palette. Jury is out on this.

September 25, 2017 - Nice wine and a good value for the price. Needs a good long decant. It smoothed out after a couple of hours. I think it may improve with some time, but it is drinkable and enjoyable now. Maybe, not worth the extra cellaring time. Not complex and a little thin.

June 21, 2017 - This wine was thin when first opened. Now after 2 hours its fleshing out. The heat of alcohol is there on the end. Plums and red fruit are mixed with light oak notes. Not a great wine but good.
