March 22, 2018 - Medium dark red. Intense developed nose, smoked meat, pepper, plum, black cherry and scorched earth. Delicious beef broth and dark fruit flavours and a very structured meaty finish.
I thought it was a Hermitage from a ripe vintage or a Cayuse Syrah. -

November 14, 2010 - Austrian and Spanish Wines on the Fino patio (Fino Restaurant, Austin, Texas): Lively and young on the mouth, compared to the nose, it was well-liked by all. Some dark chocolate and cedar on the nose, it had black and red fruits, herbs, tomato leaf, tar, black plum, and baking spices. Very smooth and seemed at its peak now, with excellent balance and a fine match for our pork sandwiches.

January 2, 2010 - Popped and poured. Lovely tea aroma with a hint of raspberry. Palate is complex, but floral? Black currant and cedar. I don't think it has further room to improve. Drinking beautifully.

February 11, 2009 - Very similar to the 7/5/08 bottle except not quite as lush but more complex in the mouth. Also had a lovely aroma of black forest cake in addition to the black fruits, licorice and graphite.

February 7, 2009 - M21: Mature and Delicious (ExtraSpace @ Boon Keng): Dark soy sauce on wet earth, gula melaka, sweet plums and coconut candy. Salty sweet cherries on a thick dense mouthfeel but not viscous. Finishes with some cigarette ash. It is quite elegant with classical sweetness.
