January 1, 2016 - Unreal. Drank at Dominic's on NYE after cellaring for many years. Was absolutely worth the wait. A softness lent by the Merlot and great flavor from the Cab. This wine is full of dark fruit and the nose is mesmerizing. Silky and plush with low tannins. Drinking great now. Has another 2-3 years left. One of my top 5 wines of all time and I'm a Pinot guy!

April 27, 2015 - Our first taste since 2011. No flaws. No sediment. Dark ruby/garnet color. Nose of dark flowers and fruits. Low tannin and acid. Low alcohol. Medium finish. Thinking it is at our just beyond peak. Plan to accelerate drinking window on the two we have left.
