  December 19, 2013 - XMas Caroling Party - From Magnum - Didn't get to try much, but did get a taste. Big Washington Merlot is definitely the lead dog in this wine, but the time in bottle has allowed the tannins to soften. Really hard to beat the very of the Hedges CMS

  December 6, 2011 - A little late, but proper cellar conditions allowed this sleeper to be resurrected.

  December 18, 2010 - There was not much fruit present and I was left with a sour finish. This wine seems to be unbalanced as nothing was integrated. I don't think age will create balance with this wine. There is simply no fruit left to balance with. Not a QPR at $10.00 and not recommended at $1.00. At this point this is a pass.

  May 24, 2010 - No faults and no real qualities to this wine. Taste is a tad on the artificial side. Not a wine I would buy again!
