  January 2, 2022 - My last bottle of this wine drunk with pork roast and sauerkraut. Plenty of fruit and good balance. Probably a bit past peak. Drink.

  November 21, 2021 - Opaque dark red color. Meaty, dark fruited nose. Intense dark fruits on the palate. Blackberries, blueberries, grilled meat. This becomes softer and brighter with air, more red-fruited. Smooth tannins, great acidity and balance. Perhaps a touch of heat. Finishes very long with plums and blackberries. I'd drink these up starting now for perhaps 3 more years.

  June 27, 2020 - Near the end of it's life, but not too far off its peak? A very rounded wine, chocolate, leather, substantial fruit. Acidity balanced the Nettle Meadow Kunik cheese at the beginning of the meal and FlourPowerNY espresso brownies at the end.

  November 15, 2019 - Didn't read my previous note before pulling this wine - but ironically, we had a few friends over, and it was beef stew. This wine was the highlight of the evening. We opened with a 2006 Carlisle - and it was fine - but this 2007 showed even better, was both deeper and smoother.
