Sunday, August 7, 2016 - Drank over 2 sittings a couple of days apart.

On day 1 this took on an almost Medoc like character. The oak has settled down with only a hint of vanilla. Bold bramble fruit, tobacco and a hint of mint. Very nicely balanced soft tannins and smooth acidity. Medium/long finish.

Second sitting 2 days later this has developed a more port like character. Still the bramble fruit but now it is sweeter and the finish much longer with brighter acidity. Very good
