The black fruit is still present though on the downside with a touch of green showing. Drank this on the wrong side of the hill but still enjoyable enough. — 9 months ago

Fascinating to revisit this wine - still showing beautifully w/very consistent profile from previous occasions... so much time left on this. For those unfamiliar w/Fred Scherrer - he started at Dehlinger and then struck out on his own. He’s a UCD guy (my Alma Mater)... I used to rep his wine and it’s incredible across his portfolio. — 5 years ago

2018 vintage. Decanted and tasted after 30 minutes and 2 hours. Massive, heavy color and body. Currently monolithic. Solid wall of dark plum. Revisit in a half-decade or give it an agitated decant and let sit for 4-5 hours. 4.17.26. — 2 months ago

Decided to go through my cellar. This is very good for the age, although it did lose some chocolate notes. Still very pleasant to drink and enjoy. — 4 years ago

Bright lemon and mineral nose that follows through on the palette. Chablis like character From a lighter vintage — 3 months ago

2018 vintage. Decanted and tasted after 45 minutes and 1.25 hours. Medium/medium-heavy body. Dropped the overt weight and starting to get more chiseled. The usual fruit and spice suspects without surprises. Would love to hit this in 8-10 years. Too well-balanced currently so it will be a difficult task to accomplish. 01.16.26. — 5 months ago

There’s a lot of cedar and berries with a hint of veg in the nose. The taste showed the same with some sweetness than tannins and some sourness in the finish. I did like this wine but I look at wines in my cellar a bit differently now that I’m over 80 and think I should have drunk this sooner. Still have the 2014 and will get that shortly. If you have any of the 2013 drink up. BTW, did a hard decant about an hour before a Wagyu steak dinner and saw no changes from opening to finishing the bottle.

Floral notes, leather, and fresh berries on the nose. Raspberries, spice, and a great balance of fruit and acid on the palate. Drink now or could hold for a few years. — 5 years ago
