  Dinner at D Cuisine (Chicago, IL): Only moderate American oak notes here. Black fruit and leather, and only starting to develop secondary characteristics. I quite enjoy the balance here, but knowing how well these wines age this is a wine that will benefit from a few more decades in the cellar.

  Spanish fun day one (N&J's place, Canberra): From Coravin. Meaty, savoury, a little baked bean, tomato and tomato leaf initially as well as quite an umami underpin. With time and agitation more red red fruits starts to come through; strawberry especially, with a little herbaceous underpin and plenty of vanilla oak, as well as a little red currant. Sourly juicy, meaty, savoury umami, porcini, concentrated though muted red fruits in support, tannins are drying but silky, textured, all travel long. Hmm.

  Ample, corsé avec encore un peu d'élevage.
  Sur les cerises, les bleuets et le poivre.
  Les tannins sont charnus et la
  finale super longue nous laisse sur des
  relents de tabac.
  Encore musclé et bien en forme.
