With Australian wagyu ribeyes /dinner party. Dark ruby/garnet, clean fresh nose, dark red and black bramble , spice, savory underbrush and pretty florality, consistent palate with a faint fruit compote without raisinyness, medium weight and decently lifted mid palate , some tannic grip and medium acid. Still fairly fresh and drinking nicely owing to the tannins. Medium finish and well integrated oak. Enjoyed this.

Good but my impression is that it is past its prime. Appears that no one else has posted but I since 2020. Drink up and move on to 2016.

Was somewhat disappointed in this one. Not as full boded as I had expected or as good as the previous bottles.

Rich and smooth dark berry fruit with enough acidity to balance. Solid pairing with thanksgiving dinner.

Smooth, rich, intense blackberry and blackberry flavors. Full bodied but not over the top. Drinking great right now.

Had the first bottle a year ago. Then it had a full fruit structure but a bit tight with potential. Wonderful how this has matured. Now with a richer more complex red fruit but also with a base of delicious earthy fullness. Hard to wait to see what the next year will bring.

Deep, rich, and full bodied flavors of blackberry, blueberry, and soft spice. Just enough acidity to keep this balanced. Jammy without being too viscous. Delicious.

Still needs time but imagine it will improve in the coming years. Will wait on the rest of the bottles.
