Organic earth dominates with mushrooms, wet leaves, and "sweet manure." Complimented with pomegranate, cranberry, savory spices, and black tea. ❤️ — 9 years ago
Has held up quite nicely considering sir Parker's initial 86 rating. Great earthiness, black fruit, tobacco and spice and completely smooth and lacking any tannins whatsoever. Was go time 5 years ago but still held up quite nicely - Carl's place 06-02-16 — 9 years ago
29 years old and drank incredibly well. What a treat. The big fruits have softened but in their place is now a brooding torrent of notes which evolved from sip to sip. Quite a remarkable wine. — 10 years ago

Light, fruity, nutmeg, complex. Furthest north of tasting. Slight minerality, wet sidewalk, gun powder finish. Spice — 11 years ago
Released in 2013. This is still so young and forward, I can barely understand. Sure, I suppose there was development here, but I keep chasing these wines backwards in time, and they never seem to reach that place that my vinous instincts suggest they're headed. I mean, this was really tasty - maybe my expectations are the problem... — 9 years ago

Just gorgeous, so Bordeaux like it's crazy. Big beautiful earthy tones backed up by fruit. Love this wine... — 9 years ago
Fresh and beginning to develop some nice tertiary characteristics. In a good place. — 10 years ago

Probably my first place of the night overall. Also has the most legs to go the distance. Put this one away for 5-10 years before trying again. Very balanced but built for true greatness. — 11 years ago
