These always get better with age. The “sharpness” of the fruit and tannins melt away and the wine is so much more harmonious — 6 months ago

At 10-years, a beautiful experience…deep, dark pour with no signs of bricking…dark fruit (more purple and black) aromatics that just keep on developing…palate mirrors aromatics with strong fruit profile…pleasing texture/mouth feel…medium finish…hard to say how much longer one should hold…tonight, it was in the right place for our dinner — a month ago

Christmas Eve pop and pour appetizers. A majestic medium gold color. On the nose: subtle notes of candied lemon, banana, pear, buttered popcorn, honey. Taste: chalky-creamy, bright wine with lemon rind, saline, pineapple, brioche, mineral and a white pepper grapefruit finish. YUM! — 5 months ago
