December 10, 2021 - brick road colored with a light and translucent appearance. intriguing nose tealeaves, smoke, tobacco and some struck match. violets and earth. the mouth fills with spices, dried fruits, some minerals and good acidity. still pretty grippy tannins and a medium long finish. I agree with below: this is as good as its going to get. nnice!

November 20, 2021 - on the way to Brick colored. Wonderful rounded spicy nose with surprisingly good share of red fruit primarily raspberry. Full bodied with no edges. Hints of tobacco, earth, leather. Long giving finale. Peaking.

April 4, 2021 - Wine is bright and light with a brickish teinte, nice tears rolling down the burgundy style glass.
The nose is tertiary with dried leaves, tea, smoky, asphalt and maybe some violets. On the palate next to tertiary flavors still red fruits, a bit blackberry and a raisiny note. Good acidity and the tannines are still there and offer some grip but without being to hard to chew on.
fairly long finish where some oak influences show.
Overall a nice wine where patience paid off and offers an aged wine with all the textbook characteristics. It is time to drink this one the next 1 / 2 years.
