June 23, 2019 - My initial impression upon smelling the wine was "oxidized". After a bit that impression settled, I think it's a quality of this wine/vintage that the fruit is very ripe, but there's no doubt in my mind it has aged some too and should be drunk now. It's got strong sweet fruit but I might mistake this for Spanish rather than Rhone. It's really big and round. On the back end I get the sense of something waiting underneath that might hurt tomorrow when I come back to this wine. Very nice, but I'm glad this is my last.
