    May 25, 2019 - Great bottle, holding up extremely well. A nice full body aged cab. Great color, nose, with a deep and long finish.

    November 24, 2018 - Held up quite nicely. Decanted for a couple of hours before serving. Black cherry and anise. Pleasant surprise for the Thanksgiving weekend.

    September 22, 2017 - After seeing a 2012, I was wondering how this 2001 compared. Well, the fruit had definitely started to decline a bit, but the wine itself was structured very nicely. The wine was a little bit of oatmeal cookie and black cherry up front. A little brambly and olive-y going to the middle. The finish was a wild ride of wild black cherry and a hint of pepper, with softened tannin. This wine seemed to appreciate the more that it was in the decanter. Glad that it was served tonight!

    November 22, 2016 - Showing nice notes of an aged cab - earthy, olive, meat and subtle dark fruit. More fruit on the palate than nose. Fully integrated medium+ tannins/acid. A nice showing, pop 'em if you got 'em.

    April 23, 2016 - Some earthiness and fruit initially on the nose. There was some funkiness in the aftertaste as well on my initial taste. Given the structure and the body in the smell, I was optimistic that some oxygen would help this wine to open up and get rid of the initial mustiness. After about an hour or so in a decanter, the flavors definitely became more expressive. We were greatly rewarded for our patience as we enjoyed a magnum of this wine over the next 4 or 5 hours. Definitely in its sweet spot, could probably go another couple years if I had any left! Paired nicely with flank steak and chimichurri.
