February 8, 2020 - Consistently shut down hard across several bottles at a group dinner unfortunately. Deep, concentrated, and structured with lots of potential. I can see why this received so much hype early on. Will wait another five years before opening one again.

Just wanted to confirm, I wanted to sample one of these to see where it was, but if I understand you correctly, I'll wait it out for a bit.
Thanks in advance!
