March 9, 2024 - Good value and in fine form with 12 years of age. It’s drinking nicely right now with fresh and modern touches of plum, cassis, black tea, and a whisper of dried lavender.

March 6, 2024 - Needs a ton of air or better...more time. On day 2, it reveals an amazing amount of rich fruit underneath the austere exterior. Tons of energy and youth in this and shows no sign of advancing

February 5, 2024 - Popped and poured, consumed over two evenings. It was enjoyable right away & continued to deliver on the second night, with flavors of blueberry, plum, cherry and black currant.

December 27, 2023 - For the price, the palette feel is notably fine. This was quite muted however, and even despite an hour and a half of air it still was pretty timid. As an other reviewer noted -- could it be that this is a bit diluted and lacking in concentration? Extension was short and not a long palette length despite the velvet.
Nose and tastes: Cassis, cigar, gravel
