February 3, 2024 - Had with steak. Vickey and I both thought it was harsh and no “softness” like we remembered

August 12, 2023 - Had back to back as pop, and Poors with the 2016. Both from 750. Knows on the 15 is a bit more floral and fragrant, but the 16 delivers better across the pallet. I don't have many. (if any) 15 remaining; if I did, I'd mark him for drinking in the next 6 to 9 months . While the wine is still respectable and enjoyable, it's on the 16th or 17th hole IMO

May 14, 2023 - Smokey currant, black raspberry, chocolate, white pepper with just a trace of toasty oak on the finish. Rich and balanced. Drinking well and seems completely integrated at this point. Double decanted

April 4, 2023 - Drinking maturely. Time to enjoy. Not much acidity. Tannins are soft and relaxed.
