July 21, 2017 - Third rendition of Avery Family Cellar Wine Dinner - Root day and '14 DRCs to the rescue! (Mirabelle restaurant, Washington D.C.): Beautifully mature old claret nose, subtle sweet red fruits, raspberry jam, plum, cedar, caramel, wet tobacco and leather. Fully integrated palate, round and silky, exceptional sweetness, good acidity and mineral, and a lovely long seamless finish. Excellent showing. I love old clarets so my point may be a point or two higher. A great surprise.

February 24, 2017 - The Second Avery Family Cellar Wine Dinner - Really old wines (The Grill Room at the Rosewood DC): Strong VA, coffee, tobacco. Nice material and silky palate. Too bad.
