February 27, 2024 - Similar to prior notes after a 2 hour double decant; outstanding & at the start of peak drinking that should last several years

October 15, 2022 - Amazing wine. Did not decant and just opened it and drank it to indulge myself. Great wine and definitely on the Caymus kind of style. This is definitely sweet and delicious, dont bother with tertiary or earthy elements, this is a VIP party wine. Don´t consider it buying it if you like boring austere Bordeaux.
