July 5, 2023 - From Coravin. A solid 95. The nose is quite expressive with dark berry, graphite, and a hint of vanilla. On the palate, the core structure was strong. The lasting was fairly long. Drink now and good for at least one more decade.

June 24, 2021 - Finish is shorter and mid palate less round than I expected, but still enjoyed this overall. Primarily notice graphite, iron/meat and some savory herbs on the nose. Fruit seems muted right now.
