Outstanding blend that is at it’s peak. Went great with a Grilled New York Steak. Don’t see this getting better but it should hold for a couple more years.

Good blend with some secondary notes starting to come through. Light on the fruit with some tannins showing up on the second night. Should be drank in the near term.

Not good. After having a very good experience with this wine recently, I opened my last bottle. This was unusual right from the start. When I pulled the cork there was a noticeable pop sound; sort of like Champagne. There was an "off" aroma and the initial taste was that of a wine that was slightly corked. My guess is that a secondary fermentation occurred in this bottle. I gave the bottle a couple of thorough decants to see if it would improve. It did improve slightly but was never that good. I saved the bottle and tried it again the next evening. it was worse and I poured it in the garden. Very sad.
