4/2021. Bold and full of flavor. Smooth finish once it opened up. Paired very well with the Cowboy ribeye at Perrone’s Steakhouse in Murrrels Inlet. — 4 years ago
Quite a bit of melon coming through and some umami. One of our new favourites. — 2 months ago

Last time i took out the purple cowboy was a lot different but it was great to enjoy this one and not need a new sofa. — a year ago
Wine Nerd herd virtual tasting of various vintages from 90s, 00s and 10s - mine was the 2013 - 88% CS, 8% PV, 3% merlot and 1% CF from various vineyards in the valley floor region - four hour decant - this is less fruit than you would expect but certainly an amazing wine - Napa finest at a modernist style Bordeaux blend - nose was rich with tobacco leather cocoa and forest floor - heavy to medium body yet the wine was soft because the fruit was muffled - mid palette with black blue and red fruits - orange peel cinnamon and sweet silky tannins integrated nicely - this could easily go 30 more years but not sure it will get better so if willing to decant and maybe even double decant for an afternoon this wine is ready for being paired with a cowboy bone in rib eye steak and will not let you down - truly an enjoyable experience as was all vintages tasted last night - HUGE SMILES — 4 years ago

Lot 6.2022. Just received this spring in a shipment from Garagiste ex-Seattle.
This is less savory and more soft for me. It doesn't show quite the meaty richness I've seen in some other yamahai. Better to serve this room temp or warmer. — a year ago

Sake World 2024 Had to judge given it’s the same glass throughout the tasting but this was nice. Generally a fan of the Kimoto style. — 2 months ago
