March 2, 2016 - From a bottle that got stuck in the back of the cellar. Well past its prime, but a surprising amount of fruit remains. Tannins are gone, still a pleasant mid week red. Wish I could have tasted it earlier.

July 3, 2010 - Surprisingly lots of fruit left, although turning a little austere. Fine tannins. Lots of force for 9 years old and 13.9% alcohol. Finish started to go a little rasiny after a couple of hours.

October 20, 2007 - Probably a bit past its prime. Sour fruit dominates with a little spice. Unimpressive.
