96 Points

Saturday, May 27, 2023 - Memorial Day Weekend, Day 1: Inglourious Basterds: Big aromas of rich and huge dark black and red fruits. Noticing bits of age showing through with some gentle plum notes as well.

Flavors of brooding rich fruits, gentle but deep and dark earth. A touch of heat but it gets suppressed from the big fruits.

HUGE fruits (still, even after 18 years?!) just lobbing more gobs of brooding fruits in your face. I'm not sure how this will go from here on out.. I'm guessing this has gotta be at or near peak. Give this another few more years and it can still get better. Any longer and I can see the acidity tiring out. 96+
