  August 12, 2022 - My goodness, this is so spectacular! 3 hr decant. Brooding and explosive nose of chalky dark cherries, blackberries, roasted plums, leather, all-spice and liqueur. So much intensity of aromatics and splendid depth on the palate. Adding notes of slate, minerality, firewood and melted black licorice. This is simultaneously massive while being graceful. The balance achieved by Jean is outstanding! Ample acidity plus pliable tannins ending with a long finish!
