March 20, 2022 - Surprisingly, still very fruity in the nose and flavor. Not a lot of complexity but very easy to drink with burgers.

January 30, 2019 - Incredibly silky/velvety on the front palate— this led to a fairly muted mid-palate and finish. Still drinkable with appreciable qualities but certainly at the end of its life.

June 29, 2018 - Deep and dark mix of ruby and garnet red. Layered nose with eucalyptus, graphite, earthy, a touch of greenery, red berries and some barnyard. Medium tannins (5.5/10) with medium plus acidity and medium plus body. Layered palate with mint, herbs, black cherries, spices and a touch of greenery. Long finish. Drink till 2023. (90+)

April 11, 2018 - I am a bit puzzled by the reviews that thought this wine was thin. My bottle was fabulously concentrated and dense, demanding sipping vs downing. While sometimes that intensity is coupled with excessive sweetness, I didn’t find that the case here. Had a nice finish with softened tannic structure
