January 29, 2024 - Young and too oak dominated the first night. Better after a day under cork.

November 21, 2021 - Double decant. This was a wow wine for me. Cherry and blueberry. Full bodied. Beautifully textured. Nice minerality. Very long lingering finish. Very different. No discernable rocks funk. Tastes like it’s ready to drink right now.

October 27, 2021 - Long decant and then it was day 2 and beyond where it became a beautiful wine. Flowers and fruit unfolded on day 2. Well done.
