Thursday, March 19, 2020 - Pop and poured, drunk over 3 hours.

A mature and quite lactic nose with butterscotch, cashew, cream, pear, bitter almonds, and sherry notes that become less evident with air time. At first the nose came across a little tired, but it freshened up some with air time. Mid to full bodied, forward, and beautifully proportioned. Deep, yet with good lift and a sense of chalkiness and power without weight. The palate is fresher than the nose with excellent cut, a sense of stony/chalkiness, and breadth without any heaviness. I suspect this was better a couple years ago. Excellent with popcorn with white truffle salt. Drink up.
