    March 16, 2024 - Nice older bottle. Ready to be enjoyed.

    February 29, 2024 - Deep color, still pretty youthful. Notes of red berries, also some dark fruit, mint, nail polish, some herbal notes, slightly fresher and youthful. Medium-full bodied, but slightly lighter than 2004, with high acidity and medium-high tannin that is a little less pronounced than 2004 and 2001. Good length. Very good but maybe not as substantial as 2004.

    January 20, 2024 - Tannins are still quite strong. Coming together nicely, but will probably be even better in a few years

    October 29, 2023 - Decanted 3 hours. Drank over 2 days. Dark brick red. No age showing on edge. Tannins at first, more mellow day two. Needs air. Some spice, Cherries. Long finish. Very nice.

    July 25, 2021 - Pruney but structured on the first night, when most of it was consumed - without enough decanting. By the third evening, it was more fresh and mineral, and more fun to drink. The lesson for me yet again: more air.
