Monday, January 22, 2024 - With Lamb chops…..
Interesting bottle….seemed Dead upon opening and very thin but what an hour decant will do.
Mild cassis, mint, slight earth, rhubarb,cinnamon and a beautiful sweetness that surprised me. Whisky/sauternes note shows it’s age though still can seem fresh from a slightly colder sip. Decent acidity and strong finish. Probably best to drink up.
Range from 88-93 points
At 3 hour mark it is showing black cherry, crushed rocks and licorice. Match sticks? Very fresh. Crazy time with this wine.
