Day 1 Closed a.f. upon opening calling for some air. And this comes from someone who usually prefer to follow it all the way. Day 2 Pure milk chocolate bliss but not forgetting its dark fruit companionship I'd say 3-5 more years easily.

I like it. It’s been a while since I’ve had this wine. This is almost there - I’d recommend a long decant to soften things up a bit. More complexity in the mouth than the nose, at least for me. Mint, soft spices, pomegranate, crisp blackberries. Needs some time then 92-93?

This is a bit more fun since I last tasted it. Still lots of coconutty oak and big tannns but after a day open, surprisingly drinkable. Certainly not an elegant wine by any means. Needs a really long decant.

This wine is overwhelmed with American Oak and was not enjoyable.
