Decanted for an hour and paired with a beautiful filet and creamed spinach. Lots of fruit, but more subtle than I expected with a long finish. Got better over the course of dinner as it opened further. Savored the last glass for quite a while. Have more of these in my cellar for the years ahead. Can’t wait. Delicious.

My girlfriend did a blind tasting to me with this wine, I think she under-decant it, just 15 minutes. At first it was a little confusing and tied, after one hour it was signing. The body is medium and the finish is just what the doctor order...

Only had about 30 minutes to open before pouring. I fell in love with this wine. So smooth. Served with a steak. This is special. I look forward to tasting it again over time.

This is very smooth. At first the smoothness is the best quality. It has a great aroma and its first impression is good (around a 92). As you drink more the quality starts to build and the wine just gets better. Its a solid 94 and would be 95 to 96 if it was a bit better at first sip. As I drank a few more glasses it slipped back to a 92. Good but not balanced enough for the price tag in my opinion.

Big juicy and wonderful. Steak and grilled onions. Perfection.
