March 4, 2018 - Popped, decanted and drank immediately. (Magnum) A muscular, gamey and funky wine. Rich and brooding with dark layers of charred plums, sweet cherry pulp, smoky black currant, loam, manure, burnt toast, and iodine. Very good. Advanced, and some at the table say a little past prime. I wonder if out will develop more secondary nuances and have a long life at ahead. I would recommend to hold for the short term, ie. about four years or so. It could be a 96 when it finds it's right window.

March 5, 2016 - Tannins and high acidity were definitely present, but they were in balanced with the fruit component. Lovely and balanced wine with the stuffing to last if you asked me. But it tasted delicious now if you prefer your wine a little tannic.

August 6, 2015 - Not sure about whether this had storage issues or not. Nose is very nice. Fresh, pure, iron, blood, red cherry, spice, of medium intensity. On taste - wow does this have tannins. It will take a long time to integrate. Acid is fine, but there is an odd note which may strike me as a bit of a cooked flavour. With air it goes away so I am not sure. A very long finish. More of a cranberry finish than cherry. I think this is 10-15 years away from being approachable.
