Nov 19th, 2017We introduced ourselves to the 2008 KH for my wife's birthday in 2014 after we had stored the bottle for 4-5 years. It was exceptional with a fine filet. Beautiful round bouquet with intense but smooth expressions of dark fruits and vanilla pencils. Tannins presented themselves briefly but yielded politely to the festive occasion as they guided the fruity expressions of plums, cherries, and blackberries through the dark and dense liquid of life. One could sense that madame anise had joined the party but confirmation was difficult. All the attendees stayed for the long finish before bidding adieu. It was a memorable experience. We joined the KH wine club three years ago and enjoy all vintages now.

Oct 16th, 20172011. Drank March 2017. Had it with Del Dotto Villa Del Lago to see how two wineries approach the challenging 2011 vintage. Soft fruits that weren't extracted enough for me. Smooth tannins. Hall did a very good job on an off-year vintage. But, without even tasting the '12 you can tell that the '11 is the shadow of what the '12 is.
