July 17, 2021 - In the glass, rather significant bricking, turning amber/orange at the rim. On the nose, aging gracefully, dried cherry, orange peel, decaying foliage, fresh tilled soil. On the palate, still quite structured, replaying some similar notes from the nose, cherry preserves, mineral, blood orange, finishing very long, but the drying tannins start to clip the finish. At peak, or in decline. Overall, this seems to be drying out and would be best consumed in the near term.
