June 24, 2022 - Still heavy and earthy. Strong berry and dark fruit flavours, with craggy tannins. Delicious, if a little rustic.

July 25, 2019 - Decanted 2.5 hours. Still young. Improved since my last bottle 3 years ago. I would recommend to decant it at least 2 hours. 92+ pts

November 28, 2016 - Not decanted. Consumed over 2 nights. Still young. The second night it was much better. This will need a few years but it's already very good. Give it enough time to breathe if you want to drink it now. 91-92pts.
