August 4, 2022 - Hazy medium garnet with some bricking around the edges. There’s still some carbonic character here but this is transforming into a more thought-provoking wine. Graceful, light, and mellow but with a serious undertone. I love this and wish I had more to follow with age.

August 2, 2021 - The age has done it favors. It’s lost the (unbalanced) electric edge, and now has a tropical fruit nose and nicely balanced red fruit in the palate. Medium garnet.

July 30, 2021 - Deep ruby red. Bright nose with cherries, leather and rhubarb. Medium plus acidity with medium tannins (5/10) and a medium body. Red berries on the palate with a bit of black fruit and cedar. Long finish. Drink till 2025.
