June 23, 2018 - This bottle of wine surpassed expectations as I was expecting that its best days had already passed it by. Not so. While it was certainly time to drink it, the wine still had plenty of fruit and a soft lingering finish. If you happen to have any left on the rack, drink up!

March 27, 2016 - Outstanding. Had this one after 3 other bottles with Mel and Chris. Great balance. Cedar notes, slight animal, olive, and plum. Super smooth finish.
