July 30, 2021 - Some secondary development on the nose, it has that sweet oak tinge to the aroma profile of cherry, cardamom, cassis, red plum, and sweet tobacco. Medium bodied with fully smoothed out and elongated tannin and juicy acid, the flavors include maraschino cherry, black tea leaf, blackberry, garrigue, and slight cumin. This has developed nicely over the last four years.

March 18, 2017 - The nose is a bit oaky, but offers blackberries, plums, black pepper and pipe tobacco as well. A bit one-dimensional now, this will change with time. It's full bodied, but balanced and juicy. The fruit includes cherries, strawberries and this wonderful note of guava. It also offers cocoa, smoke, black pepper and iodine. It's a bit shadowed at the moment by oak, but this is built to age. This is only going to get better. I'd say sit on this for at least two or three years, but I'd be very curious to try it in ten.
