November 26, 2023 - Wine made in amazing vintage. In the glass full ruby. In the nose chocolate, sour cherry, anise, graphite. After baked apple and black pepper. Elegant tannins, fresh in the mouth. Precise in complex texture. long, slightly balsamic finish.

November 21, 2023 - Continuing to develop nicely, the wine blends layers of ripe, opulent fruits with minerality, flowers, espresso, and licorice. There is length, complexity, and lift in the waves of fruit on the palate and in the finish. Drink now, or wait and gain additional complexities. Drink from 2023-2040.

July 18, 2022 - Tight. Blackberry, plumb and coffee. Iron clad finish. Teasing you with it is brilliance. A decade from now you will be so glad you are still alive.

June 19, 2022 - Blackberry, cassis, ripe raspberry, violets, faints notes of almond; very elegant, balanced, refined, still young and somewhat tannic, but quite approachable, engaging, and enjoyable nevertheless; excellent now and very good future potential
