January 14, 2023 - Has aged and held up quite well! Meaty, gamey, and savory on the nose with a taste that follows it’s nose. More fruit on the nose with medium full body and long finish. Could age for 5 more years but in a great spot now.

May 26, 2022 - Ether and prune on the nose - much better than it sounds. On the palate, iron/beef blood, blackberry, tapenade, and notes of smoke, blueberry, and lemon citrus, with no detectable tannins and moderate to to strong acidity on the long finish. This was a bargain at under $50; at $75+ it would be only an average value. It isn't past its drinking window, but it's not going to improve, and it may not hold much longer; it's time to finish these.
