September 26, 2020 - As before. Getting better with time. Excellent now. Unique, but the closest comparison is maybe a good Pauillac.

February 16, 2020 - Doing very well today. Complexity as before, but great nose of blackberries - same in the mouth - great intensity. Very St. Julien (I"m thinking Gruaud Larose). Punching well above its weight. Good now, might be even better in 2-5 years.

May 29, 2019 - Deep purple color, with very modest signs of age.
Intense nose of rubbed tobacco, dried herbs, plums and wet stone, fresh green leaves, cassis.
Smooth up front, good mouth feel, softer red/black fruits - plums, cherries and redcurrants, herbs and sandalwood, good acidity still (plus some supporting tannins), great length of fruit, well integrated wood and a good dose of pyrazine.
Amazing to think this is the second wine for earlier drinking. Singing at 12 years old, and still has time to go. Drinking well now with food, but will probably improve further over the next 3 years. Napa mountain fruit meets old world styling - love this. -

February 26, 2018 - P&P Dark, not extracted but beautiful dark purple. Shows no sign of age. Nose reticient but there, dusty mountain nose, herby.
The palate this has weight right off the cork, huge cabernet fruit, triple swallow to get the fruit off the palate. Delicious.
Dusty blueberry fruit lingering, some wood, herbs, mint. Excellent bottle in a good place, but can go another 10, so balanced.
