    January 27, 2024 - Decanted for one hour. Nose of blackberry, blueberry, currant, licorice and spice. Black and blue fruit, spice, licorice and drying tannins on the palate. Very long finish. Full bodied. Drinking beautifully. Served with hickory smoked, reverse seared picanha and black truffle butter.

    December 28, 2021 - K’s brother broadcast a live cable news interview before dinner (about COVID travel impacts), which got some what in the way of a thoughtful appreciation of this wine. Quite a trip to watch the bedroom TV and see him live sitting at the dining room table. About the wine, what I can say is that it was awfully good after a 1 hour decant. It may not get better, but I expect the 2012 GTS will at leastbhold its own for several more years.
