March 25, 2023 - Still so much like wild cherry cough drops in the nose. Big ripe style, yet still drinkable. Liked it but it lacks finesse.

December 16, 2022 - WOTN. Head and shoulders above 17/18/19 Macdonald. 30 min double decant and it’s in a perfect place right now. Had a bottle in 2019 which was marginal but this was just exceptional. Finish goes on and on with layer upon layer of taste. Just oh so good. Drink now, it’s in its peak.
