  February 12, 2021 - Eðalklúbbur, vínsmakk #2 vor 2021 (Hlíðarás 10): Frekar dökkt á litinn. Í fyrstu, þegar þefað var af víninu þá komu fram sterkir sólberjatónar (ribena). Þessir tónar hurfu þó fljótt og eftir sátu salvía, läkerol, gúmmí og smjör. Að svolítilli stundu liðinni mátti svo greina kaffi í ilminum. Mjög þægilegur og aðlaðandi ilmur. Ekki tók svo verra við þegar smakkað var á víninu. Í byrjun málmkeimur, járn sem vék svo fyrir mentoli, kaffi og súkkulaði. Hellings tannín í víninu en ekki óþægileg. Virkilega gott vín sem okkur gekk erfiðlega að staðsetja.

  July 4, 2020 - I absolutely loved the perfect balance of concentrated fruit and bright acidity.

  March 19, 2020 - This has been open 24+ hours as I'm typing this note. The wine was all smoke, eucalyptus, and plum yesterday...it took all the remaining time to show anything else on the nose or palate. Now, it's a deep ruby in the glass, with scents of smoke, eucalyptus, tobacco, leather, and graphite. The palate is structured, robust, and full as notes of dark chocolate, coffee, plum, and blackberry. This wine has a medium depth & complexity, and is lacking in what I'd look for or expect from a wine at this price-point. I am sure that this can improve with time, but I would not recommend buying this for anything over $40. There are far better wines from Bordeaux that cost less than this. The wine is full bodied, medium acidity, medium fruit, and has a short finish. Very Good to Excellent.
