August 26, 2022 - Great bottle. Much better than the last I had. Very good concentration. Dried black fruits and dried violets with lots of nature Oak notes. Shoe trees. Certainly fully mature, but not flagging.

May 30, 2022 - 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, 10% Petit Verdot, 5% Cabernet Franc
Smudgy looking, opaque, tiring and dull. Cork is deformed and loose.
Hello funky town! Nose is not for everybody. Fermented nut, kimchi, black tea, horse manure, wet log.
Resolved tannin, medium body, medium acidity. Red currant, wild berry, smoke, tobacco leaf, black olive, kambucha,
The condition of the bottle requires an hour of slow decanting to be serviceable. Drink now with a downhill trajectory. 89-
