    February 1, 2016 - Nose: raisins and vanilla
    Taste: non Shiraz probably because of the age but still good. Raisins, tobacco, and a short finish but I like it.

    July 22, 2015 - silky tannins & coffee, vanilla & mocha on the finish. with purple and violet hues and flavors of ripe black-berry and raspberry.

    December 23, 2012 - Recently bought from Premier Wine in Buffalo. Cork was very dry and brittle, and disintegrated badly when I tried to open it. Had to strain wine to try and get most bits out. Wine did not have that jump out jammy taste that I remembered from it, even after decanting. Think it is past it's prime.

    May 6, 2011 - Juicy ripe fruit with nice structure and finish. Still drinking very nicely.

    March 8, 2011 - Some pie crust aromas, dark vanilla oak and berry flavors, soft, integrated tannins. Sadly, its best days are behind, was expecting more tannic backbone...as in previous vintages.
