-med/med- acidity, med/med+ weight somewhat restrained ripe dark fruit with a mineral bitter licorice streak that runs through the finish, med/med- tannins
-dark and brooding without much complexity now, think this needs some more time to open up -

April 10, 2021 - Superb. Thick, fragrant, floral nose. So pleasant, reminds me of blue, syrupy fruits. High acidity on the palate, with blue and red fruits coated in fat. This is where the mild olives, mild bacon fat savory fruits speak to the varietal. Tannic throughout. A lot of life still. Loved it.

May 30, 2020 - Blackberry, fig, olive brine, potpourri, white pepper. Medium-plus body. Medium acidity. Medium-long finish. Good now, but no rush.
