December 24, 2021 - Crimson in color. 13.5% ABV. Super nose of plums, cedar and cigar box. Surprising power from in a Right Bank wine from the overlooked '04 vintage. Currants, cassis, tobacco and earth on the palate. Exceptional length on the finish. The wine showed way better than expected based on previous experience with this bottling. Drink over the next 2-4 years.

September 19, 2020 - Crimson in color with some bricking at the edge of the glass. The label says 11-14% ABV? Ok I'll go with that. Pretty nose of red fruits, cedar, leather and tobacco. Nice balance of fruit and tannins. Currents, plums, iron and earth on the palate. Exceptional length on the finish with drying tannins. I think this wine has aged better than most would have expected. Thoroughly enjoyable on a rainy night in Seattle. Best over the next 1-2 years.

November 30, 2014 - Soft, silky, elegant and lush, the sweet plums, smoke, licorice and black cherries shine though in this medium bodied, velvet textured, ready to drink wine.

January 18, 2013 - Consistent with earlier note - Drinking good now. Good balance and well structured with quite ripe fruit and silky tannins. Very nice and classy.
