December 19, 2021 - Something wasn't right with this bottle. Monolithic with a bit of a metallic note.

January 18, 2021 - I didn't take my own advice to sit on remaining bottles. Similar experience to last bottle. Nice wine but very fruit forward, would prefer some more earthy characteristics.

November 29, 2019 - Decanted 1/2 hr. Similar to previous bottles. Bright darker fruits. Smooth on the tongue.
