Still Very fresh for a 2004. Not 100% melted tannins. Good body. Red fruit and animal notes. Very nice pairing with chitake sauce steamed snapper and mushrooms. — 11 years ago

So great. Grateful to have had the opportunity to taste all her reds from the same vintage. So incredibly expressive of their terroir. No exception here. — 9 years ago
Bright acidity makes this tremendously food friendly--would pair well with all kinds of charcuterie / pate in addition to lighter desserts. Should last decades — 9 years ago

It initially had a muted bouquet, but it blossomed with lovely red fruit. Started flat on the palate with whispers of something great to come. Nonetheless, elegant and refreshing from the start. After 10 minutes or so, it was bursting with blueberries, but they were gone as soon as they arrived. The wine quickly developed into a balanced delight with red fruit on the front end and a lengthy dark chocolate finish. Silky and surprisingly youthful for a 63-year-old time capsule. — 8 years ago

This really bloomed with air. On the lean side, as expected. But was a great foil to seated duck breast. — 10 years ago
At it's peak. Literally on the plateau. Simply gorgeous! — 11 years ago
