Sunday, April 16, 2023 - Dark garnet in color with clearing at the edges. Full, forward & attractive nose of ripe fruits aromas of cherries, blueberries & plums with overtones of earthy/dusty & floral notes, leather, tobacco, loam, mushrooms, minerals, balsamic notes & a hint of cedar in the background. Full bodied with very good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, mature, ripe fruit flavors of cherries, blueberries & plums with mushrooms, minerals & herbs. Lingering smooth finish. Drinks quite well at present & at 22 years of age, it is at or near its peak of development, so drink up! Fill was in lower neck above shoulder; cork was clean & intact.
