Raison on the nose. Well balanced. Could probably breath more than an hour or so — 10 years ago
After a solid hour of air a majestic and sophisticated wine began to bloom. It's absolutely lovely, rich berries, glycerin, minerals and dark chocolate. Merci! — 11 years ago
Fantastic. Let it breathe for an hour. Drank w our two friends who own Manousakis Vineyard in Chania. Very special wine that is full bodied with soft tannins. Full of soft cherries and forest floor. It's the bomb — 10 years ago
Birth Year wine, so I'm a bit biased. Took about an hour to open up. Great cherry and floral notes. Wish I had another. — 11 years ago

Strong berry rich cabernet sav. Aromatics of plum, vanilla, blackberry. Soft to tongue with long finish with just the amounts of spice and oaky. Pairs well with grilled steak. Tannins enhanced after letting it breathe for 30 min - 1 hour. Depth in flavor, great with hearty meal to compliment. — 10 years ago
When I first opened it I wasn't that impressed and amazed at why people would spend so much on a bottle. After one hour, it was so herbacious and complex I think I dreamt in Italian for a week — 11 years ago

Opened up nicely after an hour. Great primary fruit and great balance. Always a reliable wine list order. — 9 years ago
