A little jammy on the initial pour but with 20-30 minutes this really stands out. Cocoa, blackberry and a hint of pencil shaving. Long finish with a fine balance. — 4 months ago
2013 vintage drank in 2020. Tannic, well structured, deep dark fruits, raisin, violets, and cocoa or dark chocolate depending on the sip. I didn't get any tertiary notes surprisingly. Hot on the first sips, opens up into a really nice wine after 1+ hours decant. I would drink this again. — 5 years ago

Classic old-style lighter Valpo. Cherry, almond, bitter herbs, and gravel on the nose. Bright and almost ethereally textured on the flowing palate. Nice acids, and a slightly bitterish cleansing close. Imperfect? No, perfect. (The 9.3 doesn’t reflect that this is as complex or complete a wine as, say, a Burgundy or Napa Cab to which I might give the same rating, but that it is exactly what it is supposed to be and I’m enjoying it for that.) — 5 days ago
