January 9, 2022 - Opened at 5:30, poured a small glass, full-bodied, quite juicy. Decanted to a small decanter at 6:15, drank from 7 - 9:30, full-bodied, dark cherry, leather, somewhat oaky, smooth tannin.
Not as far over the hill as others suggested, doing quite well right now, but I wouldn't wait any longer. -
