January 19, 2022 - Aged well. Tannins still good. Nice complexity. Licorice and tobacco flavors, in a good way.

July 18, 2020 - Time is definitely improving this. This was similar to a bottle a year ago, but better than I remembered. This is ready to drink, but it won't go downhill any time soon.

January 3, 2019 - Light strawberry and menthol on the nose. On the palate, rich black cherries, blackberry, and notes of cocoa and savory herbs, with moderate smooth tannins and good acidity on the medium finish. This was a bargain at a little over $30; at the $55+ I see it going for now it would be a good to very good value.
