  September 25, 2022 - Russk. Tim brought to CDC at Andrea's. Really nice done and restrained for a Tuscan coast Bdx blend.

  March 21, 2021 - PnD let air for 3hrs.
  
  Consistent with previous note.
  
  Starting to flesh out.
  
  Plum cassis tar violet graphite thyme and cedar on the nose.
  
  Dry. Medium(+) tannins. Medium(+) acidity. Medium(+) alcohol. Medium(+) body. Medium(+) body. Medium(+) intensity with flavours of plum cassis.
  
  Medium(+) finish with grippy blood iron and cassis. Very good. Drink now suitable for further ageing. This is going to get way better. Hands off for five years.
  
  Day 2 last quarter of the bottle sealed and left in fridge brought back to room temp. Nicely rounded with better integration. +1 pt.

  October 24, 2020 - PnD let air for 90mins.
  
  Plum cassis vanilla tobacco coconut tar and cherry on the nose.
  
  Ripe racy and balanced flavours follow the nose. Grippy lingering finish. Lacks a bit of depth in the middle may fatten up with time. Very good. Drink now suitable for further ageing. Awesome value.
