June 15, 2023 - Best bottle yet. Suave dollops of licorice in cherry cola. This has come into its own. Huge flavor profile, supple and smooth, balanced and approachable. This was decanted for 90 minutes before serving.

April 24, 2022 - Best bottle yet. None of the alcoholic heat from previous tastings. Supple and smooth. All luxurious dark fruits, enveloping anise, and earth tones. Decanted.

September 19, 2020 - Needs an hour in a decanter. Deeply extracted fruits, supple with good length. Unfortunately it is unbalanced with too much alcohol. Best right after breathing in a decanter, before the heat emerges. Still fresh. Long but uncomplicated life ahead.

August 8, 2019 - This needed an hour after decanting to open up. Quite rough at first, and hot, but that all melted away revealing a supple Cabernet with moderate complexity and enjoyable length. Nicely balance. Ready to drink now, showing light bricking.
