Sunday, June 4, 2023 - Decanted to remove sediment and opened up beautifully after 15 minutes. Exudes enticing aromas of cedar, mint, camphor, unsweetened black raspberry jam, and hints of cigar ash. Deepened and intensified with air.
Medium weight in the mouth offering a delightful combination of minty red fruits, reminiscent of cough drops, and subtle hints of charcoal embers. Masculine, well-balanced and not overpowering, with the rough edges gradually eroding away.
This wine is in a very good spot and will stay there for at least another decade. Lovely showing.
