    November 12, 2022 - Superb! Bought at auction, so fingers crossed. Cork was pretty loose in the bottle neck. But wine seemed unaffected. Dark purple. Loads of dark fruit; just a hint of tannins. Has many years of good drinking ahead.

    February 22, 2020 - This wine needs a couple of hours of air, and then it's outstanding. Great fruit and balanced tannins and acid. This wine will last another 20 years.

    May 19, 2018 - Decanted two hours before service. Paired with lamb chops.

    This is a huge wine that's not even close to maturity. Huge, mouth drying tannins. Blackberries, licorice, and vanilla on the palate. Totally opaque purple color. Lots of sediment. Drink now with a couple of hours of air, or keep over the next 20 years.

    February 17, 2018 - On the pop 'n pour this was rough and tannic. 90 minutes later, the chamber maiden turned into Cinderella. This is a massive wine, but silky smooth with mouth drying tannins on the finish.

    Color is ink black with a deep currant-purple rim.

    A nose of blackberry, strawberry, blueberry, and a hint of vanilla and licorice.

    The mouth drying, massive palette with licorice, flowers, and currants. It lasts for several minutes.

    The acidity makes the mouth salvate, but the enormous mouthfeel balances it. Truly a magnificent wine that will last for many, many, more years.
