February 27, 2024 - 87.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4.5% Malbec, 3% Cabernet Franc, 3% Merlot, 2% Petit Verdot. Decanted an hour but should of gone much longer.
Blackberry, tobacco, menthol, black olive, leather, cedar, bursting with baking spice.
Forgot about this in your cellar for another few years! Even with decanting - you're not even scratching the surface.2 people found this helpful Comments (3) -

December 18, 2023 - A nice wine that still needs time isn’t the bottle. I would hold for at least 2-3 years. Cheers

December 16, 2023 - Two hour decant. Very deep dark electric magenta color. Apricot-infused chocolate cake and cassis dominate right now. Dry, plush, full bodied palate. Full tannins on the longish finish.
This is young, a touch tart, and austere. It will certainly improve. I’d suggest waiting a year and give it a 3-4 hour decant.2 people found this helpful Comments (3) -
