  February 6, 2015 - Beautiful Port color with a bouquet and flavor that was typically dusty (house dust), with a mélange of plum and cherry, and a hint of persimmon. Not a power horse, and without the wow of a Taylor-Fladgate, but still pleasant. Second bottle similar.

  December 24, 2014 - Youthful nose, perfume of strawberry cream, ripe raspberry and marzipan. Pure grained tannins, perfectly integrated. Matured flavors of prune, mandarin with dates and figs in a long lasting wonderful finish.
