Bought from Winery in 2023, properly stored at home. Deep black center with violet edges, vivid fennel & mustard seed nose dominates fruit at first. Blackberry and floral as it is in the glass longer. Rounded but aggressive tannin excellent with fatty brisket. Long nearly ripe blackberry finish. Gorgeous wine, I may try to hold out to 2032 for my last bottle. Cork was perfect, as if it was 6 months old.

Not a bad wine. Interesting for sure. Some scorched earth mixed in with black fruits and leather. A very rustic and powerful wine.

As Lagrein's go, I've never had any better but that's not saying very much. Lacking in body and fruit....pretty generic and thus perhaps past due.

Still drinking great! It could probably drink great for another year or two....
