When we were in the early days of our marriage this wine was a special treat. Which is why I grab it once in a while, nostalgia having that odd power. I opened a Stags Leap Artemis tonight because this wine failed me. So so sweet. Oaky vanilla confection, little structure, zero finish. How the mighty have fallen.

First time, & pleasant surprise: real depth & acid undertow on the back end, a gorgeous, powerful, sweet black currant-y fruit core at its center. Much less "stuffed" & more elegant than I expected. Didnt experience it as a jam explosion as others here did, & i tend to be sensitive to jam explosions

Black ink color, super rich, mocha, black cherry, full bodied tannins. Explosive on the palate, I can see why many people like it.

Opening up slowly. So much fruit, spice and life still much life packed into this vessel.

Decent fruit, very heavy and oaky, flat finish and overly extracted to the point of heavy stewed palate notes

True to style... Lots of oak, vanilla, very soft tannins.
