Still youthful. Very big fruit present, 10 years in. Tannins are firm along with significant acid, suggesting this has solid 8-10 years left in it. I will give it 4 more years before opening another - it’s just too young for my taste tonight. The acid really asks for food, so open this with dinner.

Sad that this was my last of 4 bottles. Solid as always. Mostly red fruited but some blue fruit notes as well. Nice balance and good energy. Not as many secondary flavors in this bottle.

Ripe cherry, cedar, and a musky note. The finish is medium with a rose petal smoothness. Very light tannins remaining.

Drinking very well. Out of the bottle and with some air… very good juice.

decanted and poured, smooth, well balanced with a bit of tannic bite at the end. Drinking well, but no hurry
