Friday, November 3, 2023 - Deep ruby color. Med(+) aromas of black cherry, vanilla, charred wood, cinnamon, raspberry, strawberry, perfume. Med(+) body, dry, high alcohol, soft, low tannins, long finish. A lot softer and more oak influence compared to what I recall for the 2019 vintage, but this bottle has travelled with me over 2 flights with some temp fluctuation so it could be condition. Alcohol sticks out a bit too much to me. It’s not as good as 2019. Oak is not yet integrated imo, so I’d wait a few years at least, but I’m unsure if balance between alcohol and fruits gets better over time.
