April 8, 2024 - Needed some time (60 min+) to open up & come together. Consistent with previous bottles. Still drinking well.

December 30, 2020 - Nose is somewhat muted at the present with still present oak and pure cassis; hints of mulling spices. Luscious on the palate with nice acidity to mitigate the grippy tannin profile. This is a dark expression of Merlot with plum, blackberry, cassis with blueberry skins accented by cocoa and cinnamon from the oak. Delicious now and looks to have a good 5-7 years easy if well stored.
