  July 4, 2021 - Retail $180. Under cork. Really, really, really Big. Ass. Bottle. This might be the heaviest bottle I have ever tried to lift. The wine, even after several hours open, was incredibly tight but eventually, with considerable coaxing, I picked up some dark berry fruit, mostly blackberry, cassis, and a touch of plum. Add in some spice, black pepper, and some dark earth, and the nose is pretty darned attractive. The palate is also rather shy initially, but the fruit blossoms after a handful of hours open, which is accompanied by a balancing tartness and mostly integrated tannins. There is enough of that tannic grip on the finish, though, to suggest a long life ahead, at least a decade.
