June 3, 2019 - Better than I remember it being, not sure why I was worried about it. Does have touches of that tar but all in a harmonious package, drinking well now but will go much longer.

October 17, 2018 - Medium+ garnet. Macerated cherry, rose, tar and cedar provide the initial notes while anise, smoke and tobacco provide depth. The tannins still have a lot of grip, but are not harsh. Good body and concentration with a medium+ finish. Very good wine!
