Jun 27th, 2015Mature and lovely, can't see it improving much more beyond this point. Wonderful with the lamb at New Leaf Cafe on our first wedding anniversary. Perhaps not quite on par with the 87 & 88.

May 31st, 202226 years old. Dark ink colored with a purple rim. Blackberries, plums, and graphite on the nose. Pow! It’s like your drinking a 2016 Cab! Strong, full of character and a gorgeous dry finish.
