August 6, 2018 - Medium-full bodied, exhibiting a good dose of new oak. Too hot on its own, though pairing well with butter-rich dishes, providing a good counterpoint to saturated fats. 14.9% ABV.

April 13, 2018 - Shabam! Fruit and spice and everything nice. Drinking wonderfully right off the bat upon pouring. The fruit, oak, minerality and acid are all harmonizing like a barbershop quartet. Killer bottle.
