26 March 2018 Same, same, same. Previous notes apply. I'm about as excited as I've been previously about this wine, which is not much... likely even less so this… 8 December 2017 Same as last month's notes.

On initial PnP it was a little thin and flat, with notes of light strawberry… 20 August 2015 Dark black cherry, raspberry, ripe plum, and wood smoke, with secondary notes of black tea, allspice, and a hint of mushroom/forest floor.
