June 17, 2023 - Dark ruby purple colored, medium full bodied, slightly softer and more focused and less complex than the Beringer, since this is sourced from but one single vineayard site, black raspberry and black currant fruits with notes of vanilla, cocoa, hints of mineral, mint, toasty herbs and oak.
This was showing superbly at fifteen years of age, likely at the apex of its drinking window.

April 6, 2021 - First impression was over the hill...nose was off, stewed plums, little life. Took about 90 mins and started to come to life. This went through major changes over the 3 hours of drinking. Very impressed with the acidity, fruit, and character shown. Wouldn’t hold any longer, but still drinking great

December 4, 2016 - Nice mature nose of dried red cherry and black cherry. Tannins are fully integrated at this point. Very smooth with a nice medium finish. Drink now.
