  January 24, 2021 - Wine was incredible after decanting for 4 hours. Great earthy tones I’m looking for in older Diamond Creek Volcanic Hills.

  March 5, 2020 - La Paulée Zachy's Auction - Thursday (Le Bernardin Privé): Cedary, earthy and leafy nose. Light-to-medium concentrated on the palate. Seems a bit soft.

  March 5, 2020 - Zachys La Paulee Auction; 3/5/2020-3/6/2020 (Le Bernardin Prive - New York NY): Small glass, brief note. Still too tannic for the level of fruit.

  January 25, 2020 - We had the volcanic hill on 1/19/20 and on 1/25/20. These take at least 4 hours to open both bottles were drinking very well at hour 4 and the red fruit and floral notes really started singing. Might go another 5 yrs?
  
  This is an amazing 37 year old cab I recommend opening it in the morning for a dinner time glass

  January 27, 2018 - Part of our No Wine Under 25 (Yr.) tasting. A medium garnet coloring with a hint of bricking on the rim. The nose gave off some fruit (black cherry, blackberry) and then faded to mature notes of cedar, leather and chocolate. A very smooth wine and drinking well.
