November 14, 2022 - Despite an initial bandaid note, that disappeared quickly to reveal a fantastic wine. Nice musky nose. Big chalky fruity well-balanced- just a wonderful wine. Probably need to drink relatively soon.

Day 2 has mellowed this wine very well. The fruit might have taken a very small step backward but now it is a rounded mouth filling wine without a bitter finish. Sure it's not complex, but the only negative is a feeling of heat on the finish. At 14.7% alcohol I would expect that.
One day had moved this from a mid to upper 80s wine. I have another that I will save for a couple years. -
