September 5, 2020 - Decanted 1/2 hr. Drank over 3 hrs. It opened up more after 1 hr. of drinking. Not much nose. Consistent, lively tastes of darker fruits, cherry and a bit of chocolate. Nice soft mouthfeel.

May 31, 2019 - Dark fruit, intense acidity, on the dry side, cocoa, leather, licqourice. Lots of energy for its age, though not overly memorable.

July 10, 2015 - Still young, with lots of roses and red berries on the nose. Some complexity, but still a ton of tannin, that makes this wine almost painful to drink. Could probably stay forever in the cellar, but not sure the fruit will last as long as is necessary.
