December 30, 2023 - So much energy in this beautiful wine. Drinking well now, but can be kept for further development. Sadly my only bottle.

February 17, 2023 - Drank over two days, first day was still a bit closed bloomed on the second day very light and elegant with lovely earthy notes on the palate.

April 23, 2022 - Perfect drinking window for me. Olive and leather on the nose. Lovely sour cherry on the elegant palate with just the right amount of light tannins on the finish.
