October 30, 2022 - Drank very nicely.
August 10, 2022 - Still hanging in there. Nice dark fruit notes. Good for week night pasta night.
December 5, 2020 - Drinking well. Smooth, balanced with black fruits on palate
November 2, 2020 - The most satisfying Bordeaux blend in this price range for the last six months. Still fresh and showing youthful energy, but not likely to benefit from additional aging.
Strong black cherry note coming through a complex of dark and mid-dark fruit. On the verge of excess alcohol, but no VA or impression of heat.
Well crafted from excellent juice, worth it's price.
August 14, 2020 - Surprisingly a disjointed drinking experience. A wine this old should have been more integrated....
July 26, 2019 - This was an okay bottle--drank well enough but not 'more-ish', as my Brit friends would say, and it doesn't have the substance for further cellaring. Drink by 2021.
January 28, 2019 - Drank on Sat night. Delicious. Really full bodied, well balanced, darkly fruited with currant and dark berry, rich and smooth without being candied or overdone. Really excellent. Drinking at peak, but no danger of dying anytime soon.
January 8, 2019 - Firm and complex fruit. No mature flavors yet but has reasonable tannins for continued cellaring.
November 23, 2018 - Dark and viscuis. Fresh red fruit aroma. Rich dark cherry, meat and ripe olive flavors with some juicy acidity on a nice lengthy finish.
June 20, 2018 - Chocolate, raspberry, moderate drying tannins with cracked pepper in the finish which dries up a little quickly. Nose doesn’t give much, some berry, dirt and a bit of lift.
