May 26, 2023 - beautiful brett and ripe pyrazines. density of flavor that bodes well for a long life. tannins are fine already and dont necessarily show the same potential for long life. acidity is still in balance and gives freshness.

July 8, 2022 - Nose: Grape must, blackberry, slight wildflower, and a barely detectable amount of hay and manure. Palate: Gritty earth and stemmy blackberries, whisper of wet oak, scarce traces of menthol and yeast on the late finish; tannins are robust yet polished.

October 7, 2021 - A little more fruited, red fruits and again a touch of Brett; nice acidity and freshness, betrays it’s cooler site, higher elevation. More grip here, not so fat. A little lean, not so fat.
