July 1, 2022 - Moving the cellar. (Huge pain and a lot of sorrow, but I’ll survive). Found three of these and opened one not expecting very much. What a surprise. Softer and round than I remember it from a few years ago. No hard edges, decent structure from the cab. Not disappointed I have two more. Won’t disappoint.

September 2, 2021 - This bottle, at 15 years of age, was exactly where I was hoping it would end up. Fruit has mellowed into the background, alcohol is not evident at all, no sharp edges or tannins, just mature, smooth, tobacco and cedar.

June 6, 2020 - Drinking great; probably the best $9 bottle you can buy & a favorite with burgers. Structure still there but fruit is fading. Drink up!
