April 30, 2023 - Broad-shouldered and powerful, the T6 launches its attack with copious amounts of cassis, muddled black and red raspberry, red cherry liqueur, and some boozy vanillin flavors, finishing strong and assertive. There is a textural craftsmanship here that is indeed notable, but it is slightly pushed to the side by a healthy dollop of heat. This is still working out its balance, though it certainly has a frame and tannin structure that signals long-haul capability.
Revisit in 2026 in hopes it calms down a bit and the extracted fruit is able to sustain the heavy tannic heft currently parading around the core. -

September 16, 2022 - At the Farmstead in St Helena. Friend brought from home. Dark fruit (cherry, cassis) aromatics. Similar palate. Heavily extracted though not too heavy handed to be off putting. 14.9% but the wine holds it well. Drank along side 2000 LLC which I brought. Yin and Yang experience.
