  Excellent bottle. Very pure nose of rose, cherry, blood orange, mint, and hay, with a dry, earthy quality that almost gave this a sandy powdery quality. Palate was lightfooted but powerful, alcohol will drop over next few years, but didn't drink hot or come out the nose. Good, fine grained tannins. Almost salty, mineral quality to soil note on palate. Real palate scrub. So clean, too. Good bottle in a really good spot. Really overdelivered and will be checking out other bottlings. Such energy. Wow.

  For now Excellent- with a bit of air.
  A very pretty wine, radiant color, typical notes, some cherry, some dusty earth. Tannins are fine but present, clipping the finish a bit. Glad to have a couple more of these.
  
  Next bottle 2028?
  
  14.5% abv. This is a surprise. Hard to believe it's that high.

  Deep ruby in the glass. Medium plus intensity on the nose. Black cherry, tar and spices. Surprisingly dark and brooding with plenty of oak.
