December 15, 2023 - Still young and fresh. High acid, Coonawarra mint, mulberry, chalky tannins. Hardly moved on day 2.

March 24, 2023 - Still a wonderful wine. Great flavor, not sense of too late. Thanks for the Hill Smiths on a remarkable wine.

December 5, 2022 - Surprisingly fresh and youthful, not at all over the hill. Some bricking and garnet color, but still good fruit, faded tannin, a touch of acidity and a silky mouthfeel that leads into a lingering finish. 92-93

April 14, 2022 - Still very nice; still some acid, cloudy, but a nice, long finish.
Another bottle, May 2023, was even better; clear, smooth, nicely balanced. -

September 26, 2021 - Good, but on the downhill slide. Still tannic initially, needed a couple hours decant.
