Apr 5th, 2015Great Bordeaux style Cali blend. A treat for Family Christmas Dinner. Could still use a few more years in the cellar.

Dec 20th, 2013The intense star anise aroma let me know that this year is going to be pretty different. Much darker fruits on this year, reminds me more of a stewed blackberry. Lighter bodied with a softer mouthfeel. Getting a little slate on the finish of this one too. 2008 outshone this otherwise really nice bottle.

Dec 26th, 2021Tasting very nice right now. Would not hold this too much longer if you want to taste the fruit. Nice and smooth, not a lot of tannins. Good with our apps.
