March 15, 2024 - Amazing color and full body. Soft mouth feel, round, flavors of plum and other dark fruit. Finish was nice, soft, easy!
It held up well for 27 plus years.

Still very drinkable but I would wait not much longer. Tertiary aromas over primary fruit notes. Spicy, cigar box and black currant. 93

March 11, 2023 - Drinking the wine at age 25. Dark, no water line. Graphite, asphalt, green pepper. Tannins resolved. Still another 10 yrs to this wine.Long finish..
February 12, 2023 - Very much alive and well. Bright fruit with ample depth and structure. Well aged but would not be surprised if it tastes similar for several years. Fully mature. Enjoy!
