1st one consumed sometime in 2017.....really really nice, wished I had bought more.

August 2020....think I had second bottle recently (this year). Was still good and still loved it. Would definitely buy again if a decent vintage.

Sept 2022....Smitty's cottage, first wine served with Mushroom rissoto at Wendy's. Was nice but had small edges, not as smooth as I believe the 2014 was. Perhaps another year in the bottle or some aeration.
