    July 24, 2022 - WOTD in a double blind tasting!! I always love when a favorite of mine which is also the lowest price bottle beats out a strong field!! Thought this was Bordeaux. Cherries, cedar, earth, and nice depth. Lively for a 2001.

    November 25, 2020 - Decanted for 1 hour and drank over the next hour. Wine is drinking nicely and is still in a good place. Not sure if this might have been a little better a few years ago, but still enjoyable.

    September 5, 2019 - Whoa...gotta be honest, this is damn good right now if you liked aged wine. Muted fruit profile of black cherry, currant, and dried plums. Still a wonderful balanced wine with notes of earth, forest floor, pencil shavings, black licorice, savory herbs, and some mocha. Very soft tannins at this point but a long elegant finish.

    December 12, 2017 - Opened by Otis at our holiday party. 8th time I have had this wine over the last 14 years. Similar notes as before but it seems to be slowly declining. 88 points

    November 3, 2017 - Rich, smooth and tasty, with dark fruit, spice and sweet earthy flavors. Nice long finish.
