  Drank from a Zalto Den'ark Bordeaux glass. Nose was not that aromatic, just some tobacco and spice. A bit disappointing.
  
  It took some time to open up, a couple of hours at least. By then, the wine showed faint red cherry and plum up front, then some oak and spice on the finish that turned slightly dry and astringent.
  
  Good wine overall, the lack of nose and the finish were detracting. Purchased after market from a private collection. Seems to be in a good spot with air, not sure more time is necessary as the fruit is already faded. Drink now -2025.

  Last bottle of a case I bought. Fully mature and ready to drink. No decant needed at this point. A feminine wine. Nice balance

  Solid Rutherford fruit. Needs a long decant, but nice structure.

  Two Bottle Vertical at the Lake (Bob and Anita's Place on Lake Wylie): This had a great nose but a little weaker than I like on the palate. Very dark juice in the glass all the way to the rim. All black fruits. Almost more Bordeaux like than Napa in style. Nice balance.
