It was lovely. Drank it at The Source Hotel Woods Restaurant. — 3 years ago
After an epic lunch from @joe leatherwood , a few of us got together for a socially-distanced evening hosted by @Keith Fisher to keep the party going.
After the 2012 Harlan at lunch, Keith decided to continue with the theme with an ‘06. Unbelievably smooth and balanced while still retaining power. Aromatically it is very black fruit dominant...blackberries, cassis, sweet tar/pipe tobacco, graphite and channeling just a touch of bay leaf. Waves of flavor on the palate of smoked meat, creme de cassis, currant, mocha, baking spices and a supremely balanced finish. At this point in its evolution, it’s reminiscent of a high end bordeaux from a warm/ripe vintage. A total treat. — 5 years ago
Smooth like silk. Still have red fruit up front with cocoa and tobacco notes and some minerality. Long finish. Great wine — a month ago
Amazing. High alcohol but really incredible. — 3 months ago
Drank this way too early but still enjoyable. Would have liked to have the addition of another Bordeaux grape but the Petite Verdot balanced out the Sauvignon nicely. Would recommend aging for another 5 to 10 years. — 6 months ago

1996 vintage. Excellent aging cork with an above average fill. Not decanted. PNP and tasted immediately. Tannins fairly bowed with the passage of decades but still showing up for the weekly hang. Light-medium body. Slightly sweet intro/startup that quickly sorts into plum, coffee and chocolate notes. This was a bad, bad tannic boy back in the day but is fully reformed now. 03.19.25. — 7 days ago
