    January 16, 2023 - Color in the glass shows some age. Full bodied with dark berry with leather, chocolate, and tobacco flavors. Lengthy finish.

    December 25, 2022 - Drinking very well. Cassis on the nose and in the mouth. Mature notes, rounded, intense. Outstanding. Will go on for another few years.
