  April 17, 2024 - Better then I remembered, enjoyed with easter dinner after decanting for about 2 hours, was a big hit, and not too old as I feared...

  January 29, 2023 - Double decanted about 90 minutes before service. Dark red with some browning. There's a lot of sweet red fruit on the palate with good acid and tannin. At least another 3-5 years of good drinking left.

  November 5, 2021 - Similar to my 1/3/2020 TN, but more advanced. Almost porty aspect to the nose along with red fruits, earth and a bit of leather. Very sweet dark fruits on the silky palate with some fig, garrigue, minerals, herbs, kirsch and savory notes. Tangy cherry and more minerals on the finish. Seems like everything is well integrated and that this is at peak or just starting to backslide. Recommend drink within the next year.
  Interestingly, a panel of experienced blind tasters were split on whether this was a really old Napa Cab or an old Tuscan.

  July 30, 2021 - Raspberry, tobacco, slight garrigue. Medium weight, nice mature tannins on long finish with some Kirsch. Has improved over the years.
