A shortish nose, but balanced by a great mouth and as good a length as I’ve experienced in quite some time, so much promise yet.
The notes are still somewhat primary, with bing cherries and some root beer, but there are detectable traces of light red stuff such as violets and brush.
I’d wait a few years for the remaining sour bottles, maybe starting in 2027? The length is my indicator here. Significant upside.

Oscuro. Color to rim. Substantial legs. Satin tannins. Morello cherries. Violets. Finish is forever.

Not nearly as good as the ‘13. Not bad, but never quite came together as hoped.
