Tuesday, June 21, 2016 - PnP Entering early maturity. Most of the oak has integrated. This shows more of the herbal, floral aspects of this vineyard. Medium body with a very long finish. Got better 2 hours after being opened and served. Lovely bottle, with a long life ahead!

I popped and poured from the bottle at time of consumption(PnP) --no decanter--and drank over a 3 hour dinner. It's definitely accessible now, but I'd decant it at least an hour or slowly work though the bottle over several hours. Ideally, I'd hold for 3-5 more years. Hope this helps.
