March 10, 2024 - First pour after opening, extremely tight. Decanted for 2hrs. Started to show promise from there. Overall, this is still young (for my taste). Massive red fruit up front, red currant and prune. Loads of spice, licorice too. Smoke with leather musk. Bright and vibrant with med high tannins. Plenty of time still left with this one.

November 30, 2023 - A fabulous bottle! A delight to drink. I bought the bottle for $144 at Total Wine and More in Florida. Great price for the bottle.

November 5, 2023 - Opened 6 hours before dinner. Liked it better upon opening as it felt brighter, fresher and more red fruit. With air, it felt heavier and showed more darker fruit. Wine is in balance though and drinking really well. Thought it paired nicely with the short rib, veal, and pork pappardelle ragu.
