    October 14, 2021 - Big wine! 4 hour decant. Dark, dark color. Striking nose of dark fruit with some more subtler and pleasing developing secondary notes. Firm, but balanced tannins. Long finish. This is a big wine with a long life ahead, balanced and pleasing.

    June 20, 2021 - It's been about 3.5 years since my last bottle of this. Well, when Pott strikes the perfect chord, he nails the notes right on cue without a doubt. This was a beautiful bottle of wine, needing just an hour of decanted air to really hit its stride. Purple core fruit with a bit of acidic tension that kept the speed and frame in electric effect without seeming too spun-up. This was dialed-in from front to back, with some smoke, rock, and asphalt notes adding interest. Entering into a solid drinking window now, though this could seemingly go the distance for another 10+ years.

    Sometimes I have to hold my breath a little bit when I pop a Pott, as some inconsistencies have reared their heads more often than I've been comfortable with; however, this one was a winner.
