May 30, 2021 - A bit musty at first, but once the funk blew off after 20 minutes or so this was singing. Nice crunchy fruit, fully mature, prime drinking.

November 12, 2016 - An excellent showing from magnum. Starts with just a touch of funkiness and then it explodes with dusty sour cherry, leather, and earth. Enjoyed by all.
