Saturday, March 30, 2019 - This was fabulous.opened this with first grilled steaks of the season. I believe at peak but with legs to go many more years. Beautiful dark ruby red with immediate fragrance right out of the bottle. Dark berry and cassis mixed with cedar and leather. Wonderful to inhale before drinking. On the palate rich and dense flavor with the berries and cassis coming through first then the more herbal and earthy notes. A very distinct but not overpowering cedar made this a special pleasure for me. I’ve been drinking it for 3 days (yes extraordinary patience!) and its held up great. Looking forward to a couple more bottles in the future.
