August 26, 2021 - Took about an hour to open in bottle. Before then, very expressive floral aromatics but lean. Once it opens some fresh mandarin orange peel leading back into strawberry fruit on the longish finish. Bit unpredictable from one moment to the next but very expressive when on.

March 21, 2020 - Needs a pretty decent decant at this point, like 90 minutes or so. After that it is a lovely berry mix, purple and red florals, mossy forest, menthol, and oak spices. palate is weightless and and silky with sneaky acidity to wash everything down. Going to try to keep my hands off this for a bit as this should develop nicely in the next few years

jtsejersen@gmail.com Does not like this wine: 80 points
February 2, 2019 - To me this wine appears a little thin and closed on the nose - not really giving away anything at all. Decent taste but lacks body and width. Besides the red berries there's also little dirty-action going on as well, which I like. Still, to be honest I think this is too pricy compared to quality.
