Agree with others that at this point this needs a lot of air. Tight even after an hour inn a decanter. Opens up over the next two hours. Nice nose, deep palate with fruit and earth notes and some leather. I am concerned that there is too much structure for the fruit and that with age this might not blossom. Hoping it will as I have more left, try again in 2025.

Dark plums, subtle mocha and earth on the nose. Good fruit on the tongue - lush juice full of cherries, strawberries and raspberries followed by tertiary notes of earth, mild mocha and hay. Well balanced with tame tannins. This. Is. Beautiful.

Opened for 2 hours before drinking. Lovely nose with pleasing mid palate flavor. A little thin on the finish. Enjoyable!
