Drank this over 3 nights and probably best night 2. Deep, dark rich fruit but not overly heady or sweet. Good earthiness and smoke along with cassis. These were never cheap, but very nice wine

My first bottle in nine years. The last one was tannic and underwhelming. This? Absolutely delicious. Reminded my wife and me of Greer, although it faded at the end. But, velvety mouthfeel, great balance of lush fruit and some secondary flavors. seemed like a top flight valley floor Napa cab.

Lots of sediment in this bottle - decanted, filtered & then enjoyed. This wine was at its peak after 3 hours in the decanter. Berries, raisins, dusty tannins with a longish finish. One bottle left in my cellar, IMO I think I should revisit within 2 years.

Not quite at the level of the bottle from two years ago, but still really good. I like how these age, and will seek out more bottles.

Complete wine, smooth tannins good fruit/acid balance, nice silky texture. More dark flavors than bright, just singing now. 4 hour open, no decant
