November 4, 2011 - My fault for not drinking earlier. Wine is shot. Disappointed. But again, should have opened earlier.

March 4, 2010 - Wish I had bought in quantity. A bit of new world love but well contained, nice layers of dark fruit, chocolate, leather...this wine is surprisingly complex for it's price. We drank it over two days and it would earn an 89 for the second day. Really enjoyed this wine.

December 13, 2008 - Very deep and quite complex with showy notes of cassis, coffee, bacon fat, eucalyptus and smoke. Fruity and soft with currant and dark berry flavors and mild tannins.

October 25, 2008 - A little too much heat, oak and tannins. Very dark, hot nose, fruit bomb.
