    April 15, 2024 - More integrated on second day. Worth a decant on first day?

    March 25, 2024 - Loved this just as much as almost 2 years ago. Plenty of dark fruits, super silky smooth with soft tannins. Superb!

    July 7, 2023 - PnP.

    Day 1: Grenache dominates, beautiful nose. Oak, very ripe dark red fruit, alcohol. Oaky and tannic finish.

    Day 2: completely different wine and frankly much more enjoyable. Nose of ripe dark red fruit, dried herbs, soy sauce (?). On the palate, alcohol, ripe silky fruit, less oak than previous day. Finish still oaky, sweet tannins.

    Three hours in on day 2: this just keeps getting better and better. Astonishing really. Oak is less up front and better integrated. Long long finish.

    Will give it a couple years before opening another one. 93+

    May 29, 2023 - Decanted for one hour. Nose of black raspberry, black cherry, bramble, red licorice, vanilla and spice. Black raspberry, black cherry, spice, bramble, red licorice and vanilla on the palate. Very long, layered finish. Full bodied. Served with hickory smoked beef brisket.
