July 22, 2021 - This wine still going strong. I opened it for a wine tasting class I am taking and initially it was very closed (we weren’t allowed to decant). Initial aromas of prune, chocolate and woody notes with black licorice and mint and some menthol notes. It was pretty tightly closed on the palate initially with some dark cherry and oak notes. But, over the course of the class sitting in the glass for an hour - massive raspberry jam aroma and flavor with lush caramel and cherry notes as well. Nice tannin and acid structure makes me glad I have more bottles to enjoy several years down the road.

October 9, 2020 - Wonderfully aromatic - fresh floral bouquet - after 14 years! Hints of green pepper and eucalyptus. Dark blackberry, blueberry, caramel and kirsch. Great acidity, lively and juicy. Good structure with finely integrated tannins still offering good grip and texture. Easily another 10 years ahead. Amazing wine with fantastic purity and a long finish.
