November 11, 2023 - Decanted for a good 3 hours before dinner. Good and very delicate, but lacked a bit of interest to be honest.

October 16, 2023 - Developed well with more complexity. Fruitiness gone. Rust coloured. Good time to drink.

June 13, 2023 - Popped and poured at cellar temp. Lovely dark color with just a hint of bricking on the rim. Bit of barnyard funk, tobacco, smoky blackberry fruit and anise on the nose. Nice smoky black fruit, dark earth and a hint of tobacco on the palate. Still quite a bit of somewhat softened tannins on the finish, so decanting is probably advisable. Just starting in its drinking window.
