June 25, 2022 - This is a big boy that needs some open time to breathe. The 7% merlot in it really balances the the richness on the pallet. Ton of jammy fruit like blackberries and raspberries. This can lay down a decade yet but more medium style body.

March 24, 2021 - PnP the first day it was surprising drinkable but I only ended up drinking the first half and had the second half the 2nd day. There was a pretty big difference on day 2, black cherry, strawberry, black raspberry, great mineral earthiness, cocoa powder, milk chocolate, amazing purity and balance. Very good on day 2 so I’d give it 2-3 years before enjoying or decant for several hours.
