March 11, 2024 - Hoping this is just a bad bottle as I’m a Dragon lover and this one had a bitter and awkward finish.

January 22, 2024 - I didn’t find this giving much, some fading fruit and maybe a bit of herbs. Kinda nondescript

November 22, 2023 - drank a few weeks ago, just removing from cellar. Recall enjoying this, but felt it was in a slightly awkward intermediate stage without its juicy youthfulness, nor fully developed with mature aromatics. Not a fault of the wine, just think it’s in a little bit of a lull. At this point, I would hold another couple years.

June 10, 2023 - Red fruit on the nose and palate. There was pepper and spice on the mid palate as well. Soft tannins.

April 14, 2023 - Fantastically beautiful wine drinking beautifully now. Texture is silky with very fine tannins but a very light weight on the tongue. Fruit is present , plum on the nose and overripe raspberries on the palate. Incense on the nose and intense cigar box on the palate. When I was a kid, there was a molasses that wasn’t sweet. This wine. Elegance drives this wine. Finish is never ending. Drank with a baked tomato, salmon, rustic veggies, herbs, and brown rice. Classic combination that i’ll remember for a long time.
