  This particular bottle was noticeably better than previous attempts. Not sure if it was time or bottle variation, but the harsh, non-fruit edge from previous bottles was not present.

  PnP was not pleasant - fruit and oak was overpowering and not balanced. However on the third day it mellowed out and was very drinkable. Nothing special, but worth consuming after a lot of air.

  what a disappointment. drank over 2 days. first day the oak was overpowering and high alcohol on the back end. On 2nd day, oak fell back but sweetness came through that made it drink like a cheap merlot.
