June 28, 2019 - Friday Tasting Group: "Killer Bar" (#03 for me): "New World" Theme (Vintage Wines Ltd., San Diego, CA): N: Earth with just a BIT of dirty diaper; Intensity lurking
P: MF body; RNDISH entry with very NICE, ALMOST SWTISH frt (at least 1 experienced taster noting some heat) met by some astringent pucker which never loses the init frt as it evolves into a LONG, poss still very, VERY slightly puckerish finish with a chocolatey swtness to the dusty tannins. MIGHT still improve a bit through '21 (?), then holding for another 5 yrs easily. 14.9% ABV; My EXC/EXC+. 93 pts & "Cellar Selection" from WE @ $70, 92 RJonWine, 90 WE, & 89 Tanzer. -

N: RIPE berries with notable pyrazines with notes of choc; Intensity lurking
P: Med, poss MF, body; RNDISH entry with NICE, ALMOST swtish frt met by some astringent pucker which QUITE resolves by the very LONG, BALANCED finish with an attractive bitter/swtness to the firming, dusty tannins. For now & through '23 safely, poss making its 20th? 14.9% ABV; My EXC+. 93 pts & "Cellar Selection" from WE @ $70, 92 RJonWine, 90 WE, & 89 Tanzer. -

December 31, 2017 - Unfortunately this was my last bottle. Decanted one hour. Deep color and buttery smooth. The flavor was extraordinary. One of the best wines I've had in a while at any price point.
