Had 1/3 bottle opened and sat in glass for 2 hrs - tasted at 30 mons and was slightly savory thrn relaxed into a long medium intensity berries but not sweet finish. Really drinking well now.

This has matured and is now an awesome balance of mellow acid and mildly tart berries with savory spice notes with a super long finish. I've been drinking down my 2018 bottles and this was left for maybe 12 mos since my last taste - this is really drinking awesome with age.

from magnum - after about 40 mins in glass warming from 54F it hinted at the 60mins+ showing of maybe 7 distinct fruit flavors with a balancing smoke without spice but enough acid behind it with a 60 second+ finish which you don't want to end. I liked this tasting so much that I bought another magnum to replace it right away.
