December 21, 2023 - Big (14.5%) dark red wine. Huge plum and black cherry fruit that still needs to smooth out. Long finish.

April 30, 2023 - Dark red big wine (14.5%). Takes a least an hour to open but still rough tannin along with the fruit. Perhaps it needs more aging????

March 24, 2023 - Dark red full body (14.5%) wine. Nice nose. Full mouth of blackberry, cherry and plum fruit. Medium long finish. This bottle was better than the previous one.

September 5, 2022 - Very dark and glossy in colour. Dark fruit and spices on the nose - ripe and generous, but not cooked. On the palate big and concentrated, wonderful fruit, the alcohol showing at times. Ripe tannins, very smooth and round, a bit of grip towards the long finish. 91-93
