November 11, 2023 - Ready to rock after a 30 minute decant. Shows signs of having been a brawler in its youth, but has mellowed out and integrated fantastically. Predominantly blue fruits with an energetic thread of sour red cherry providing the highs, and savory forest floor and pencil lead providing the bass. Long, smooth finish - this should hold for a number of years, but no reason not to enjoy now.

April 22, 2023 - Still a bit tannic when opened. Running through a Vinturi for a quick aeration made a big difference; ready to go!
