    November 23, 2023 - A friend shared this at Thanksgiving. I am confused with previous tasting notes. This was awesome and really shines as an aged cabernet. So smooth with all elements coming together seamlessly

    April 27, 2020 - No question now past its due date, but after decanting twice and waiting for an hour, it became eminently drinkable. Like a lost memory regained. A bit bitter at the end, but still there after all these years.

    November 13, 2016 - Had a bottle a month ago that was decanted for an hour but never really opened up. This time around did a double decant and left for 2 hours and it showed very well. Still has some fruit to it and is nicely balanced with good mouthfeel and soft tannins.

    February 21, 2016 - Balanced with a beautiful subtle nose, good mouthfeel and a nice 30-second finish. Well integrated and drinking well right now. Better after a 48-hour slow ox than after a two hour decant on the first day.

    January 30, 2016 - Hitting on all cylinders. I was afraid it might have peaked some time ago, but tonight it was wonderful.
