January 19, 2014 - Aromatics of over ripe fruit, gamy dominated nose- hints of violet and vanilla. Deep notes of mature dark grapes, blackberry, blueberry- in addition to very nice spice. Cooking chocolate like tannis, chalky but soft. Short to medium finish. Drinking where it should be

May 24, 2009 - nice cherry with good acidity; a bit too sweet for my taste, and at this time not much stuff to mute this

January 1, 2009 - NYD 2009 party bottle. Actually opened night before to do early taste and give it some time- I wanted to taste it while the vintage is still available for purchase, as 2007 just released. Mixture of red fruits on the nose and the palate. Seems a bit singular in its profile at the moment, without much depth. Gregg did use neutral oak and this makes it much more food friendly than I would have expected. My guess is bottle #2 will flesh out in a couple of years.

December 10, 2008 - Very big, chewey and juicy with some lingering tannins and a tiny bit hot. Very, very good with many years to come.
