January 8, 2024 - This was really delicious. Beautiful fruit and big tannins. Really came together on the second day. This is doing really well but has a long way to go.

October 9, 2023 - This needed time. So much better on the second day. It was closed on the first day. Then good dark fruit and complexity with a little learher. Very nice big wine.

September 16, 2023 - Earthy, black cherry, oak and later coffee and caramel. Needs time for sure.

Neecies Does not like this wine: 75 points
July 22, 2023 - I don't mind a little green, but the pyrazines in this bottle were out of control. Undrinkable, so left for the next day when the green notes had significantly pulled back but been replaced with pruney, oxidative notes. Fed it to the rhododendrons. Last bottle of a six pack with huge bottle variation over the four years we owned/drank them; happy they're gone.
