April 5, 2024 - Robust red with lingering taste. I did not let it air well before hand. Drank two days later and it did not lose any quality. Should be able to hold well for several years.

October 19, 2023 - Floral, bitter, red and fresh wild strawberry and sour cherry. Tannic. The combined sourness, bitterness, fruity and tannic steructure is hinting cranberry
