This wine is really coming into its own. Upon release, it was a bit too oak-y but that is not well integrated and this wine sings. It's still young, so it needs a good decant, but it's really a wonderful wine the way it came together!!!!

This wine is wonderful. Great structure, grip, length, fruit -- very tannic still and needs at least 3-5 years to mellow out, but this is a fabulous effort once again.

Bottle had leaked and not really showing much fruit. I know this is a great bottle but feel the leak has made it lose some fruit
