April 8, 2024 - I think the last bottle I reviewed must have been off because we opened a bottle tonight and it was exactly how I remembered it. Soft tannins, dark fruit, leather, lingering finish.

February 20, 2024 - 18 months since last tasted. Quite similar, needs time to develop complexity

February 6, 2024 - Decanted 2 hours in advance. Clear, deep ruby to the rim. Strong green tones more than fruit on the nose. Composed medium weight, chalky/mineral base. Wonderfully ripe, clear blackberry and boysenberry without a bit of excessive sweetness. Excellent acidity and fine powdery tannins. Clean, technically sound, well balanced, and evolving very slowly compared to a bottle 3 years ago. What's missing is any real character or uniqueness. Will that come with time?
