February 19, 2019 - This wine is drinking perfectly right now—bottom’s up!!! Black cherry and cassis nose, very well balanced and subtle on the palate. Finish is somewhat shorter than I had hoped. But enjoyed it on a cold winter night dinner out. Good complement to the Lamb loin.

May 22, 2016 - So much better than last year, this bottle has really come around. Great fruit up front, and very nice finish. Wish I had more.

March 30, 2016 - Decanted for about 90 minutes. Enjoyed over a couple of hours.
This has been in the cellar for several years; just decided to give it a whirl. Don't know much about it, but was thoroughly enjoyable. Dark ruby. Red fruit profile; a little purple. Old leather. Medium to medium + weight. Very balanced and well composed finish. Some grip still left in tannins.
This is getting right into its prime for me. It did not drop off at all over the evening. I think it can perhaps improve a little with a few years, and overall still has plenty of life. -

October 5, 2014 - Inky dark red in color, medium bodied, black cherry and cigar box on the nose. Just perfect with the marinate flank steak I grilled. It still has plenty of life--a testament to the fine vintage. It is drinking well right now and will probably peak in 2-3 years but I would not be afraid to cellar it beyond that if you like the ore aged cabernets.

April 3, 2014 - Not much of a nose, not much of a finish, just sorta OK on opening. Couple hours later opens up nicely with many aspects in better form. Think it is ready now for consumption
