July 19, 2023 - 92- Vinnørd. Very concentrated and warm weathered fruit bomb. While fairly well balanced and great length, still too sweet mouthfeel for me

October 7, 2022 - Still dark garnet, minimal translucency, a hint of amber edge. Pronounced but complex aroma of dark fruits and subtle charred wood, but some prune notes. On the palate, still very full-bodied with some heat. Lots of fruit and flavor, big but smooth, but the prune notes are creeping in. The finish is extremely long and quite hot. While still very enjoyable (great with grilled flank steak), it's now starting on the down side and should be consumed in the next year.

January 28, 2022 - I am not glad I waited so long to drink this wine, but am not displeased either. The color is subdued burgundy, with no brown edges. The nose has menthol, licorice, plum and vanilla at the end, The wine I would say is slightly past peak, but the flavors noted were of mature dried fruit, plummy and curranty. It went fabulously with lamb and a mint sauce that emphasized the mildly gaminess of the lamb. Don't you love a left hander.

July 18, 2021 - Typical Marquis style, blend of cabernet and shiraz. At its peak, nicely blended and balanced. Still dense and rich cassis and earthy shiraz aromas and flavors. Mouth-coating, somewhat hot. Very long aftertaste. No rush to finish these. They'll go on for at least three more years.
