February 17, 2024 - Very good. Dark, ripe, intense, with enough herbal, woody notes to be interesting. More fruit on the palate than the nose, quite dry with fine tannins and a medium length finish. Would be hard to place blind, does not taste old world, neither does it taste new! Probably let down by the faint whiff of green pepper.

June 7, 2023 - The bottle said to decant, it doesn't need it. Opens with a beautiful aroma of pencil lead, tobacco, cherry, blackberry, anise and floral. Similar flavors with blackberry, pencil lead, anise, tobacco, cherry, and floral. Great balance leading to a smooth silky finish.
