Wow this has quite powerfully earthy notes, rubber and bacon on the nose, but it’s rich and decadent all the while. The fruit is hiding away in there, but I know it’s there. Big wine here that should last quite some time.

PnP. This bottle was deep and dark and brooding. Really needed time to come around and still tasted extremely young and a bit heady. Very different from the other two bottles earlier this year.

PnP. Not flawed like the other bottle, but still had an unexpected tart, underripeness for the vintage. Fruit showed up a bit more with some air, but the tart finish never fully subsided. Very different from my experience with the '17 vintage.

Not corked but tart and astringent and with no fruit. Unsure what happened here.
