Sunday, December 19, 2021 - A nose showing cassis, cedar, a hint of Christmas spices right out of the bottle. The palate is finer-boned, redder in its fruit profile, accented by mahogany and chestnut. With an hour in the decanter, this grows a bit larger in scale but becomes mulchy and indistinct. Neck fill with a good cork and no signs of TCA, so not entirely sure what’s up here. Very good at its debut, at least.
