Monday, July 19, 2021 - Flint, ash, deep raspberry flavors with blackberry, light earth and licorice. Lovely texture, perfect weight & balance and incredible structure. Can easily understand why this is considered a first growth of CA. Really drinking spot on after almost 25 years - extremely impressed.
p.s. pot roast
