3 bottles of this opened and all of them very good. Definitely in the right drinking zone. Great earthiness. Nice long finish. — 9 years ago
Held up very well for a 30 year old wine. Took about 1-2 hours to really open up and hit its peak. Finished by hour 3 as it seemed to tail off. Very cool drinking a Lafite. — 9 years ago
17 August 2013. The Wine Country, Long Beach, CA. — 10 years ago
Clear deep purple colour with watery rim. Clean medium intensity aroma with minty black cherry and black currant with hint of oak smokiness and vanilla. Dry on the palate full bodied medium alcohol with medium acidity and high but smooth velvety tannin. Flavours of earthy black currant, black cherry, and vanilla. Flavours last through into its long pleasant finish. Very good quality, drink now but can age for another 3 to 5 years for a even more balanced complexity. — 11 years ago
Really great for how young and fresh it is! — 7 years ago
Full mouthfeel, can taste the oak from the barrels it is aged in. Initially too many tannins and overwhelming, but once opens up it is a nice wine. — 8 years ago

Bold, bursting with flavor. Robust, fruity, but not overpowering. Just a hint of sweet. Clean finish. Wonderful by itself. Drinking with pizza. — 10 years ago
Great fruit, still bright and perfect for drinking right now. Could still do with 2-3 more. — 11 years ago

Incredibly tasty. Big but remarkably light on its feet. Viognier really lifts it up. Pretty insane for the dollas. — 9 years ago
Lots of delicious red fruit and very smooth. Loved it. — 9 years ago
