Thursday, November 19, 2020 - Tasted as part of a vertical (2016-2018), all tasted at the same time, and for context, retasted the following day after all three wines had seen 24 hours of additional air. On the first night, there is a pencil shaving aroma, a crushed fruit feel, with fresh cherry, brewed coffee, plum and nice medium weight. On the second night when I finished the wine, it now shows to be the truest of the three wines to have an older world anchor. Soil/peat, licorice, tangy dark cherry, with elevated acid and the oak (whatever will put onto the wine) is pretty well integrated in my opinion. This is very good, the least modern in tone of the three, too.

When I retasted it last night alone, it has evolved maybe a little more but not all that much past the first night. I do the the 2016 is the most approachable of the three.
