  December 23, 2022 - 10% CABERNET FRANC, 32% CABERNET SAUVIGNON, 13% MERLOT. 11% PETIT VERDOT & 4% MALBEC.
  
  Dark and medium transparent. Decanted 3 hours before dinner. Robust nose with iron, leafy red currant, and red berries. Palate is big and tannic with wet gravel, iron, strawberry compote, ripe cherry, balsamic vinegar. Finish is medium with some heat (unclear if its alcohol, pyrazine flavor or both).
  
  Overall good but not great. Very surprising this is 8 years old. Can easily go 10 more years. Will see how long I can hold on to the last bottle.
