March 15, 2024 - Although it has a few years left of drinking quite fine right now, and I’d recommend consuming what you have

December 9, 2023 - Still tasty After all these years. Could possibly even go another three years or so, but tasting very nicely now still a good body tan and dark fruit… a salad wine.
Wish I had more. -

July 1, 2018 - This is tasting very nice now and has several more years to go. It has a balanced portfolio between rich fruit and nice tanins, with overtones of chalk and earth.

August 28, 2017 - This was my first bottle of this wine and it was hitting on all cylinders. Delicious fruit and secondary flavors of leather, licorice and earth. Excellent balance with well integrated tannin. I have one more bottle and will drink it in the next year or two. Wish I had more to follow its development longer.
