The cork pulled out so cleanly, I was positive the bottle was going to be good. But, this bottle was even better than expected! Truffles, chocolate, dried roses, tobacco, and black cherries popped in the nose. But, the showstopper here is the silky, sensuous textures that made the perfect backdrop for the earthy, black cherries, cocoa, Indian spice, peppercorns, and touch of leafy herbs in the finish. I hope I have another bottle, but, I’m afraid this was the final bottle from the case. It was perfect for Valentine’s Day. Do not decant. Pop, and pour. Drink from 2024-2030.

OMG #105 (Ann Arbor, MI): 12% abv. A lot of smoke on the nose. The palate here is stunning, featuring elegant dark red fruit, subtle tertiary notes of beef stock and shiitake mushroom, and an extremely silky texture. This beauty is at peak.

Opened to a dense juice, tannins still very much present but this wine opened up with more air. Lots of graphite and cigar box flavours. Has many more years ahead and should still get better with more cellaring. Overall nice balance and complexity. I would recommend decanting.
