July 21, 2023 - Smoky, strong fruit, still young. Benefits from a decant—would benefit more from 10 more years in the cellar. Californian wine—no question.

May 21, 2022 - started drinking 1 hour after decanting. Minty nose, still got plenty of inky concentration, very fragrant with plenty of woodsy notes, sweet on the palate. Smoke, cassis, ripe and alluring.

March 1, 2022 - started drinking 1 hour after decanting. Very ripe and sweet on the nose, highly extracted and a little sharp and alcoholic. Very fragrant and woodsy, minty, eucalyptus. Massively concentrated and still got tannins here.
