Sunday, November 7, 2021 - Two hour double decant. Very deep magenta color. Wild strawberry taffy, mahogany, and subtle molasses on the nose. Dry, velvety palate. Firm, full, medium intensity tannins on the longish finish.

I liked this, but didn’t love it. This is overpriced for what you get IMHO.
