February events Tasting JN Held together well over the evening. Noted spirit on palate which calmed within 20 minutes. Not yet hit its plateau but close.

Deep garnet in color. Nose of dark cherries, menthol, dark chocolate, and hint of tobacco. Tastes of dark cherries, dried prunes, dark chocolate, and menthol. Still primary flavors. Good fruit adn acidity. Drier in profile. I would wait another 5-10 years to drink, but pleasant now.

Very enjoyable right now. Paired with deep chocolate cake. Yummy combo.

SALTWINE nailed it. Forward, good fruit, pleasant, but needs more time in the cellar. I think I’ll hold my last bottle another 5 years. Can’t wait…

Maturing nicely from 2 years ago. Still a little vegetal but with good fruit and structure underneath. Good now, but has many years to go.
