November 13, 2021 - - Brick color and aromas of blackberry and raspberry. It's balanced and has flavours of black currant, blackberry, cherry and cloves with a full body. Juicy texture with a long finish - Incredibly complex and powerful. The age is coming through and not at the peak yet. I used a Coravin and will let the rest of the bottle sit another year. This is a great wine.

May 6, 2012 - Consensus says drink 2012-2013, but still plenty of fruit left and good structure. This could go a few more years.
