January 4, 2021 - Garnet color with transparency. Aromas of dark red fruits, smoke, lemon, orange peel, and dry spice drawer. Medium (+) body and acid, medium finish, and flavors of dark and dark red fruits, lemon, orange, and spice. Pretty good and drinking well now. I'm not getting any heat on this like the previous review, and I tend to be fairly sensitive to that; I do get lingering spice though.

June 29, 2020 - This has evolved greatly, very enjoyable from start to finish.
Soft ripe fruit with dithering tannins, and a plush finish.
Drink now. -

June 1, 2020 - Was hoping a few years would tame the alcohol. It didn't. Loads of ripe fruit and spices and even more loads of alcohol.
