  August 17, 2022 - Opened, poured into a decanter, and saved half in a 375ml bottle.
  Tasted the half bottle about 4 days later.
  Dark purple color.
  Nose offers dark fruit, beef blood and licorice. Touch of dried herbs too.
  Rich and dark fruited intro, with a round mouthfeel. Tastes a bit heavy without sufficient acidity.
  Packs a punch at 15,4% abv. although it does not show much heat on the palate.
  
  Good quality cork, branded, no vineyard, and with vintage on the top.

  June 13, 2022 - Last bottle of this, upon opening it was a little musty but that blew off after 30 min. Great black and blue fruits, black currant, licorice, dried violets, dried earth, tobacco, spice box, great silky profile and a perfect balance. This wine is as inky as it gets, great stuff.

  January 24, 2021 - Informal notes. Nicely ripe, black fruits, very inky, a vegetal/underbrush note, quite tannic still, a little coarse. Hid its alcohol well. Got a bit tiring by the end.
