  December 27, 2019 - Friday Tasting Group: "Killer Bar" (#06 for me) (Vintage Wines Ltd., San Diego, CA): N: RIPE berries with notes of pyrazines & other unparsbles; Intensity lurking
  
  P: MF body; RNDISH entry with NICE, ALMOST swtish frt met by an astringent pucker which doesn't come close to losing contact with the init frt as it seamlessly evolves into a very LONG, balanced finish with a bitter/swtness (55:45) to the firming, but fairly unoffensive, dusty tannins. For now & the next 5 yrs, + should be able to accompany food for ALL of that. 12.8% ABV; My EXC+/Exceptional-. 92 pts Decanter (Kelley, 9/20/15) & 87 WS (10/15/96). [As of late Dec '19, wine-searcher still shows 1 source @ $249].

  December 2, 2016 - Decanted. Very pretty but unfortunately served too cold to know if a higher score could be warranted. Guessing 13%

  April 5, 2016 - Mature Napa Cali Cab. Savory, tobacco, black fruit, maple syrup, with a tart cherry and anise finish. Drink up if you have any of this.

  May 2, 2015 - Out of magnum the 1993 Corison is aging very gracefully indeed, bursting from the glass with a fragrant bouquet of red and black cherry and chocolately, loamy soil tones. On the palate the wine is vibrant, sappy and ripe at the core, leading with juicy fruit that still takes center stage, and which points to this very classically balanced and Bordeaux-styled wine's Napa origins. Lovely.
