September 9, 2023 - Needs at least an hour for the perfume to come out. Tasted over two days. Pretty classic aromas of red cherry, plums, tar, earth, herbs, flowers, a hint of new leather, and spices. Tart cherry, red cherry, earth, spice, herbs, some meatiness, and a hint of graphite on the palate. So pretty and elegant, but also there's enough stuffing to keep it interesting. Good acidity, coating, grippy but accessible tannins, medium finish. The balance is terrific. For some reason, this is way too easy to drink. Will buy more.

10/3/23, 9:55 AM - I personally think 2028-2050 is a bit out there for my taste. Although this will gain complexity and perhaps open up more in five years, you'll also lose some of the pretty and elegant fruit that I found enjoyable. I have no idea how long this will age. Hopefully, this wine will be a fond distant memory in 2050...
