Still quite fresh. Enjoyed over the course of the evening while reading. A nice companion last night.............additional notes: April 8, 2018. Opened a second bottle this evening and it’s a rock star. Deep fruit with a huge captivating presence. Exceptional.....Huge bottle variance here. — 7 years ago

Plush on the nose. Great color. Seems to be lacking in the middle. There is a nice fruit component that to me is hiding. A nice long, very long finish....... all in all, I’m feeling that this one is upside down at the moment or just a little off. Still extremely tasty.........ADDITION: after several hours the fruit has emerged and is pleasingly rewarding. Perhaps I should have decanted. — 7 years ago
