November 7, 2023 - 2 coravin pours with dinner. Opaque dark garnet color, turning dense dark crimson with air. Nose is pretty typical Cali Cab. Rich ripe fruit with vanilla, leather and tobacco. Some florals soar overtop. Palate is softer and quite elegant considering how powerful and intense it looked. Both red and black fruit including black cherry, plum, black raspberry and cassis. Tannins quite controlled. Soft and pretty easy drinking. Finish is long with some earthy licorice elements. Great with grilled teriyaki flank steak. Seemed both younger and older than its 10 years with intense fresh fruit and yet an inner softness more indicative of age. Nicely balanced.
P.s. Had the balance of the bottle with grilled salmon, it paired nicely. Again this was soft and moderately rich with black berries, vanilla and leather. Pleasant and easy to drink.1 person found this helpful Comment -

September 1, 2023 - Was a big hit with close friends over for dinner (seared lamb kabobs, potatoes, and zucchini - all off the grill). Drank out of magnum. Decanted 3 hours ahead and opened up nicely. Strong vintage for Jordan. Will likely be best over the next five years (2024-2028). Technical score: 92. Enjoyment score: 92.
