Sunday, May 2, 2021 - This was such a GORGEOUS wine! Surprisingly very approachable for such a young wine with the pedigree for age. Dark wild berry fruits of cherry, blackberry, currants...silky smooooooooooothe and graceful dry cedar tannins...wonderful dusty dryness of crushed minerals and licorice...very pretty fresh flower florals of violets, lavender, and roses...exotic spices and vanilla spiced oak...and a really cool citrus note like a blood orange that brightens. Pure pleasure to drink now, especially with a chunk of meat...yet begs you to suffer with abstinence as it will only get better from here! +pts
