September 30, 2021 - 2021 FTLOP Harvest Tour; 9/19/2021-10/2/2021 (Portgugal): Dark purple in color with garnet around the edges. Blueberry, cassis and nice herbal notes on the nose. Red currant and boysenberry on the mid-palate, giving way to chocolate notes on the finish. Extremely balanced sweetness, acidity, and tannins. The finish is very long.

April 16, 2021 - drank over 4 days. Almost black, not very much nose, integrated tannines, but very young. Not much development over 4 days (under cork). So, next bottle in 5 years.

October 13, 2018 - Sammamish Port Club - October 2018 (Sammamish, Washington): Completely dark opaque in color. Intense dark berry on the palate. Well-balanced across the board. Rich fruit on the finish with balanced tannins.
