Saturday, September 16, 2023 - Perhaps I'm flying too close to the sun with this vintage, but wow, my second bottle in three months and yet another joy to drink. Very similar notes to the bottle opened in July, but contrary to that bottle, the spice didn't fade this time around. The fruit was still intact, albeit fading slightly towards the end, but the earthiness and spices from the last bottle carried over this time around as well. No more bottles of this wine left sadly, but maybe that's a sign not to push my luck!
