May 10, 2020 - Very smooth, very balanced and very pleasant drinking. It is however missing a wow factor which at this price you hope wasnt the case.

May 21, 2019 - Thought this would give more, it’s a bit unbalanced.
Dies mid palate, I can think of better WA cabby’s for cheaper...
It would be interesting to see if you leave towards the supposed 2030 drink date....I’d drink it.
