July 23, 2012 - 20c; no decant; clear, coppered red; musty (Brett) nose; dissembling structure, fruit thinning, stringent tannins; metallic, fading fruit; regret to not have consumed these in their youth. 14.5.

July 21, 2010 - 16c; no decant; clear coppered ruby red: delightful nose of violets and pinks, sage, wet leather, funghi: prominent, dusty tannins and solid fruit (fruit peaking), giving a long, gripping finish: ripe red cherries, black cherries, red licorice, sage, mint, pepper: nice--don't sit on others, drink up: 17.
