Phenomenal bottle. Consistent with other great 2011s that were able to be produced in a tough year.

At an enjoyable place, but I’d cellar for another 10+ years.

Wow. Not even completely open yet and fantastic. Big but smooth all the way down.

Not much to reckon with here. Great taste, full body and hell of a bottle.

We had a 2011 bottle and thought it was fantastic. Dark and savory would be the best way to describe it. You will not be disappointed.
