June 20, 2023 - Gorgeous bottle of BdM. Deep floral nose with some leather, something stony, and ripe rich fruit. Gorgeous on the tongue with richness to spare, a huge burst of dark purple fruit, high acidity and fine tannins. The finish is super long, super dense and just f-ing amazing. I need to buy more wine like this!

June 18, 2023 - Opened and decanted half. Enjoyed in Grassl Cru glass. Tasted with food (homemade tagliattele egg pasta with tomato-basil sauce, in case you were wondering) and then on its own.
Dark garnet color.
Nose offers some plum, cherry notes and earth. Hint of red clay/cedar notes.
Good dark fruit with firm but not obtrusive tannins. Shows a touch of oak. Sufficient acidity to carry the fruit.
Enjoyable. -

August 17, 2022 - Earthy but full-bodied. High acidity. Nice wine right now or in another 5 years or so.
