  Ephemeral, but no excessively so. pollen but also developing more herbal and savory notes. A hint at fruit that keeps the elegant effort. Medium plus finish. Minerality to the 9’s. This is delicious stuff

  Dark ruby red, plenty of legs. Extremely aromatic. Straw right off the bat as well dark rich fruits. On the palate, it becomes spicy and herbal with roses and leather. Quite well balanced, with a nice acidity giving it length. This was on PnP. Serve with lamb shank, or beef brisket . Probably will just keep getting better. I had in 2020 and don’t recall enjoying it this much. Approaching power and taste and punch of Pearl Morrissette Oblie.

  13.5% - Slightly hazy, med to deep ruby / clean, pronounced intensity - mixture of red and black berry fruits, earthy & animal (leathery), mineral edge, gentle touch of green bellpepper, smoky / dry, med+ acidity, med fine grained tannin, med body, med to pronounced intensity with a persistent finish. Stunned by the depth of this bottle and surprisingly open at this stage!
