Friday, December 3, 2021 - Unexpectedly found this uninventoried in the back my cellar tonight. Very youthful appearance, deep ruby core with slight garnet edges (I would have expected more garnet with browning). Highly aromatic nose showing drying rose petal, brown road tar, decaying pine needles, and wild, spicy red fruits. Fresh mouthfeel displaying dried raspberries, crushed cherries, sour cranberries, powdered cocoa, chewy old leather, and fresh forest floor. Tannin and acidity clearly lingering at the surface. Huge, very long finish…goes on for 45+ seconds. Most likely in the latter stages of development…seems, to me, to have plenty of life ahead. Drink now through 2025+. Impressive.
