My top wine in a Bordeaux/US merlot oriented blind tasting including Cheval Blanc 98 which I ranked last.

May 9th, 2014This drank very well and I enjoyed it much more than my previous bottle. An aged California claret of nicely balanced fruit & dirt. For my taste, it's near or at peak so enjoy now. From magnum.

Aug 8th, 2020Aging nicely. Black currants, violets, and a touch of anise on the nose. The palate is still quite youthful with loads of dark fruit, baking spices, and perhaps just a touch of heat. Lovely mouthfeel. This can easily go another 10-15 years. Todd Anderson rocks!
