    April 21, 2013 - PnP. Spice, dark red fruit, tar, burned rubber on nose. On palate, bright tart red fruit followed by spice, funk, more burned rubber and acidity. Past its prime. Drink up.

    January 5, 2013 - Too bad didn't drink this in 2010. Poured it out in January 2013. No fruit, flawed flavors.

    December 5, 2012 - Nice earthy nose. Very little fruit left. Seemed to be over the hill....

    November 20, 2011 - This bottle was giving off tar, tobacco and the slightest burnt rubber flavors. I still managed to drink it all. My wife preferred this to the 2009 Banshee SLH.

    March 30, 2011 - Consumed at a local watering hole. The color was deep ruby. The nose showed blue and red fruit, forest floor and subtle oak treatment. Cherry and cola flavors abound. I believe it would have shown better had our group allowed it time to open in a decanter. A solid effort and priced well for a Wine Bar.
