This is holding on very strong. Everything about it is solid and in a primary place with a little desire to transition. Such a joy to drink and enjoy. The Justin EIGHTY-ONE's are exceptional.

See Jan2017 tasting note. However, this bottle on PNP was all cedar. Even the palate was just all cedar barrel spice for an hour or more; the other notes were there but so in the background. After three hours I started to enjoy some of the other notes I remembered from the last bottle but I didn’t get much of this wine tonight. Had some juiciness and wasn’t particularly flabby so maybe hold?

Burgundy purple color with smooth and velvety mouthfeel. Dark red and purple fruit notes. Drink or hold
