April 11, 2023 - Pepper, leather, plumb, raspberry. Full bodied and round mouthfeel. Really enjoyable and still fresh. Needs another 2-4 years.

November 19, 2022 - Day 1
Nose: blackcurrants again, oaky oak (woody rather than sweet)
Palate: wild, tannins pronounced tannins, still moderate, fine grained.
Day 2
Nose: blackcurrants, leather
Palate: black fruits followed by leathery, earthy, herbal notes? Complemented a beef ragu very well
Aromas more direct and easy to identify when slightly chilled
Day 3
Really getting into it’s stride after a few days. More leathery and earthy notes to go along with the fruit2 people found this helpful Comment -
