A complete wine: black, blue, and red fruits. Silky texture is magnificent. From magnum, this was absolutely singing, and has plenty of life ahead of it. Best served at/slightly above cellar temperature.

Cork showed slight signs of leakage. Ripe red fruit throughout, showing both fresh and maturing character. Good density and heft, ending with a still slightly firm finish. Best to drink in the next 3-5 years while still this bright.

Red cherries, smoke, raspberries, and pomegranate on the nose. The wine was a bit muted at first but really came alive with some time in the glass. Nice acidity, medium tannins and flavors of tart red berries, a hint of cedar, and more pomegranate on the palate. Nice finish. Complex and subtle, but maybe a bit backwards at the moment. Can’t wait to see how this will turn out with a few more years in bottle. 92+

Bright red fruit when popped-and-poured, showing good+ weight with good enough textures. Previous bottles opened up with air, but this was fun right out of the gate, consistent for 3+ hours, then started to get a bit muddy after three hours. I wouldn't hold this much longer, best to enjoy by 2025.
