March 23, 2024 - Showed plenty of fruit and balance right from a pop and pour. Still very enjoyable but not getting any better. Day two was dead. Drink now!

December 22, 2023 - Still drinking well but beginning to show signs of decline; its turning a bit dry, thinning, and the color is very light. Sweet red raspberries and red licorice with leather and spices too, but alcohol is very noticeable (14.5%). If you have any, drink it now.

December 9, 2023 - Pepper, garrigue, and cherry bouquet. Supple, ripe fruit entry. Fresh fruit flavor with good concentration, there are accompanying secondary characteristics that add complexity. Very good length.
