Still too young. Not your typical 2017. This is still a bit meaty with dry extract and plenty of primary fruit. The nose is there and will only get better. Unfortunately this was my only bottle and I should've waited a bit longer (maybe 1-2 years).

This was very approachable; an easy and not complicated bottle to drink with some Italian take out. Yes, it's not very complex, but totally pleasant. Not memorable other than how easy it was to polish off the bottle. Wish I had more.

Drink now. A year ago, I had a bottle and wroe a personal note that the fruit would soon dissipate. True to form, it has. The tannins haven't totally resolved themselves, but the fruit is dying out. Drink now. It's not bad, it just not as good as it was.
