2016+2017+2018
-can't remember 1st one ( likely 2017)
- hostess gift to Rona Thanksgiving 2018
December 2021....worried I might be late with this one but it was fine. Possibly past its peak, missing some freshness perhaps, but smooth and satisfying all the same. Had with cabbage rolls, went well. This wine is surely in my 'favorites' column, consistently good year after year.

2016+2018 with BBQ
May 2020.....had with a 2 inch thick, 3 pound sirloin steak, Sunday night bbq with the kids. Wow, really really liked it, smooth, complex, great flavours....and still in good shape considering above time lines. Don't remember when had first one but cant imagine not enjoying it. (92)

South Australia, Australia$29.95

Aug 17, 2017 with rib-eye steak.....enjoyed but it has that typical Aussie flavour that I have grown tired of.....it was smooth and delicious otherwise, not sorry I bought but would refrain from buying another.

La Pieve Barolo 2008, Docg
Piedmont, Italy$34.95
Nov 25/16....loved it, had with bison meatloaf, needs meat/protien, would say at peak right now, really mellow given critic's descriptives from 2012/13, 30 minute decant.
May 2017...mature, drink last one soon. had with Osso Buco, still quite enjoy this wine..
March 27, 2019 still hanging in there and was perfect with Osso Buco once again!
