Wednesday, October 25, 2023 - Pours deep ruby in the glass with a brooding nose of olive tapenade, dark fruits and candied orange peel. Crushed lavender and lead pencil shavings round out a lovely bouquet. Fresh, youthful, and utterly massive palate of ripe red fruits on the attack that quickly dissipates with 30+ minutes of air leaving hints of roast game, sawdust, dried cherries. A mouthfeel that comes and goes as tannic structure seems to assert itself then balance with the vibrant acid, alcohol, and fruit. 60+ second finish and an easy 5+ years of age worthiness ahead.
