April 6, 2024 - This has fruit for its age especially dark cherry. Medium +tannins with some minerality, heavy legs. Need to decant. Will buy again.

January 30, 2024 - From a magnum. Two-hour decant through a screened and aerating funnel. Plenty of sediment in the bottle and screen. Otherwise similar profile as described in my note of 10-19-21. Wine still has plenty of time left.

December 25, 2023 - Lovely wine, opened it for christmas with capon.
Decanted for 3 hours prior to drinking.
Beautiful deep color, smooth tannins, licorice and pepper notes. -
