March 4, 2024 - Very spicy - cinnamon, clove, allspice, black pepper. Plum and maybe black cherry sitting behind it but the spice is very up front. There's a certain firm density to it but not unenjoyable. Decanted 1 hour.

December 27, 2021 - No formal note, this came across as too early to tap into this one, it has some of the primary characteristics of a good CdP but needs more development in the cellar, wait on this one for a couple of more years.
