    April 18, 2021 - still drinking beautifully. improved with age. wish i had a few more botts

    July 12, 2017 - This wine is still progressing after another 2 years. Leather is really dominant with more pronounced cigar flavors. The fruits profiles is intense but takes a backseat to the leather.

    This is drinking like a super culty cab.

    An absolute winner.

    September 7, 2015 - Four years in the bottle has done this wine a lot of good. On the nose the fruit is much more mellow and leather more expressive. In the mouth it's still pretty tight with tart cherries to start and ends with loads cedar and tobacco.

    This wine should be rockin in another 2-3 years.

    February 2, 2014 - Popped and poured out of a 3L. Nice fresh cherry and leather aroma with flavors of red fruits, a streak of earth and a medium finish. Very drinkable and a nicely made wine.

    December 25, 2013 - Not as sugary as three years ago. I would say they should be consumed in the next year. Howell Mountain love as usual. Fruit is fading somewhat, but very good. Give it an hour decant.
