February 4, 2024 - Drinking beautifully now. Lots of primary fruit but now getting earthy secondary flavors. Bright bouquet of raspberries, strawberries and fresh forest floor along with earth. Medium bodied with good concentration. Flavors of sweet earth, sweet cherries, red cherries, dark cherries, strawberries, raspberries. Super smooth and great balance. Drink now and over the next five years. Really great now. May last longer but will then taste like generic good old concentrated merlot

March 27, 2019 - 13.5% ABV. When I first bought this one and had it upon release it seemed a relatively light and simple. So when I went to taste it again at 10 years of age it was a real shocker. Dense, concentrated, complex. Lots of jammy berry sweet flavors and Bouquet. Great concentration. A long finish. Can enjoy now but can certain age another 10 years
