June 12, 2021 - Nose: prune, sasparilla, and green pepper in the background
Palate: prunes again, rose hips and flowers, oak, and earth
Tasted with: Dad's brisket
Overall: fully mature at this point in my opinion, but not urgent to drink. I though the viscosity was notable but wife disagrees. An outstanding wine for sure. Consensus at my house: 92 points -

July 26, 2020 - Deep garnet in color with a glint of brick around the edge. Lovely nose of currants, dark cherries, menthol wit hints of tobacco and earth. Tastes of dark cherries, milk chocolate, tobacco, and leather. Fruit comes out with a little time. Resolved tannins. Tasted better on day 2. Drinking better than 5 years ago. Drink over the next 3-5 years.

November 16, 2019 - Very pleasant and smooth. No tannins. May be past it’s prime but still very drinkable.

January 20, 2015 - Pretty classic Napa red with good body & moderate tannins. A bit closed initially, it benefitted from aeration. This will likely continue to drink well for several more years.
