  From magnum, a little tight at first but greatly improved with air time over the next 2 hrs. Cherried raspberries with subtle tannins and nice finish. No bricking around the edge. Aging nicely. In a good place right now and really don’t see it getting any better but still has legs to go further. Drink or hold.

  One of the featured wines for Open that Bottle Night and it did not disappoint. Mostly sour cherry notes on the palate along with some leather, some pencil shavings and possibly some tea. Full bodied with integrated tannins but still plenty of tannic backbone. A long, lingering finish. These Oakville wines surely have a long shelf life.

  15.0% abv. Another really strong Tor. Sweet nose. Polished fruit that's not overly acidic or overly alcoholic. Sour cherry notes. In my view this is as good as it gets. Seems like some of the other reviewers enjoyed bottled thay weren't as well stored.

  Decanted for about 60 minutes. Dark fruits, medium to long finish, deep red color. Nose of blackberry, cassis, and graphite. Medium tannins, and improved in the glass and decanter over 90 minutes

  This bottle was significantly improved over my last bottle a couple years ago. Still a little tight PnP but opened nicely after 3 hours. No decant. Good dark fruit, chocolate, and slight vanilla. Still plenty of structure so should be good for years to come. Medium-long finish.
