Opens with pineapple lemon and a slight petrol/burlap note to the nose. Quite dry huge pear and melon. Nicely balanced with a long finish. Lovely. — 7 years ago
This is still such a baby.....great color, closed on the nose. Tightly wound, nice tension. Extremely focused. Great structure and balance. Long finish that lingers. Excellent. — 7 years ago

Extremely complex. Fantastic layers of deep exotic fruit and spices. Well balanced with great structure. The tannins are super fine yet ample. Just a lovely wine. — 7 years ago
Still quite fresh. Enjoyed over the course of the evening while reading. A nice companion last night.............additional notes: April 8, 2018. Opened a second bottle this evening and it’s a rock star. Deep fruit with a huge captivating presence. Exceptional.....Huge bottle variance here. — 7 years ago

Holding up quite well. Big smoky chocolate and cola nose and throughout. Finishes clean and long. Nice balance and finesse. — 7 years ago
Plush on the nose. Great color. Seems to be lacking in the middle. There is a nice fruit component that to me is hiding. A nice long, very long finish....... all in all, I’m feeling that this one is upside down at the moment or just a little off. Still extremely tasty.........ADDITION: after several hours the fruit has emerged and is pleasingly rewarding. Perhaps I should have decanted. — 7 years ago
