    December 13, 2021 - Don't see this going anywhere from here. Lots of ripe fruit and still medium tannins. No subleties here. Just ripe fruit and tannins. Solid wine but it's one dimensional.

    May 7, 2020 - Very fruit forward.
    Lacking some structure.
    Prunes.
    Figs.
    Baked fruit.
    Dissipation of acids and tannins.

    Fully developed.
    Drink now.
    Won’t age much longer.

    December 27, 2018 - Found this a bit tannic and bitter. Not showing much fruit. Largely mushroom and forest floor.
