March 20, 2021 - High neck fill and cork came out in one piece. Almost a mahogany color in glass. Fading rims. Earthy bouquet almost Burgundian. Good fruit on palate with lightly tannic finish. Making old bones but fading. A few particles of sediment. Drink up!

January 19, 2020 - Another good bottle. Give it a 30 minute decant and the fruit emerges. Blackberry, menthol, earth. Not especially complex but quite nice to drink. Probably time to drink this one but it isn’t going downhill now.

January 2, 2019 - Well, I couldn’t wait 4 years since the last bottle but I got as far as 19 months. This is indeed opening up more and although still plenty of tannins the fruit is coming more to the fore. Nice dark cherry and menthol flavors, with finish of tannins and nice acidity. I still think this is years out from optimal drinking but it is quite tasty now and certainly drinkable now. I bet it gets better though.
