2017-2021/22 (1 per yr)
Sept 27, 2018...pre-dinner (Gerrtis, Steimlillers, Saconnes)....2 hour decant, really lovely, lots of fruit, smooth & delicious.
April 2019 - Florida at Ann & Georges
Dec 21.....for sure none left. I think I may have drank 2 myself and given one away (to a wine lover I hope). My recollection...was always a good wine but better younger, had more vitality.

2019+2021+2023 (Last one 2023-2025, maybe with Bryce&Brenda).....per MG drink 2021-2028
A naturally spicy, ripe finish confirms its excellence; drink 2018–2026. (WE)
Oct 2020...nice wine for sure, didn't wow me the way I hoped it might.....give it another 2 years (late 2022). Had with leftover roasted chicken.
March 2021....guess I should have read my previous note before deciding on drinking....in any case I am enjoying this bottle, had with Mediterranean Chicken, yummy. Last one minimum 2023!
January 2024...had with Norah, paired with jerk chicken. Enjoyed it once again.

Jan 2022....really good, smooth and delicious. Didn't feel the bite of 15.5% while drinking but did after was done (and only had one glass!). Highly drinkable as I had it with pizza and chicken nuggets, no problem. Will have with beef chilli tomorrow, should be perfect. Nice find. (92)

> Mar 2019 Tina took to Ann's surprise party
