This bottle was completely different than our last bottle. Decanted, but overpowering tannins…one could smell the tightness. Kind of okay with food, but not so good drinking by itself.

The author of the last note did not care for this Wine. My wife and I really liked it. We like a little wood, and yes it is there, but we did not think it was overpowering. The tannins were muted and well integrated. It was delightful with a filet.

My notes of May 2021 pretty much sum up my impressions of this latest bottle. More oak and tannin than fruit. It's a shame that this wine is called "Maestro" to honor the role of André Tchelistcheff. I can't imagine he would be thrilled to have his legacy honored with a mediocre wine.

Liked this bottle way more than the last (notes on 4/22/21). Good mineral expression on both nose and palate. Now 89 points.
