July 20, 2016 - On lighter side for CNdP. Earthy (dust according to wife), secondarily black fruit nose. Earth, black fruit on palate. Short finish. Good.

October 19, 2015 - All barnyard with no redeeming qualities, I am afraid. I kept waiting for the funk to blow off, for the fruit to emerge, but the most I got apart from the barnyard were distracting green notes and teeny bit of spice. Disappointing.
