Sunday, December 10, 2023 - Decanted and tasted over 3 hours. Best were the last drops. This was a shockingly youthful bright garnet color with no bricking. Nose was classic Bordeaux with slightly musty, earthy notes and mostly red berry fruit like cranberry, red cherry and pomegranate with some florals. Palate evolved slowly after an initial burst. At the end it was a brightly acid driven and even still a bit closed. It was expressive and long on the finish. It did go great with both grilled Cajun rubber pork chops and NY Strip steaks.
