  October 3, 2021 - Drinking great for its age. I over consumed this lovely beverage so the notes are minimal. Dark fruit, graphite, and oak. On the nose was lovely, still having some primary fruit notes while delivering the classic Pamerol aged smell one expects.
  
  This wine isn't going to get any better, drinking perfect now. It wont have to much more time in this window so consume now.
  
  Worth trying if you get the chance.

  April 3, 2021 - Fully resolved, this bottle lacked grip - perhaps others will be better as others have found.

  December 13, 2017 - Decanted at 1:30pm and put back into bottle for trip to event in Philadelphia and tasted from about 7:30-8:30pm. Medium, slightly translucent garnet only a hint of brick on the edge. Surprisingly youthful looking for a 31 year old. A little earthy and cedary on the nose with flavors of ripe plum and black raspberry and a long smooth finish. Easy to enjoy!!
