Saturday, March 7, 2020 - Complex bouquet of white truffle, stewed blue berries, plums, leather, star anise, cinnamon and seasoned oak. The nose echoed beautifully in the palate, rich and balanced with some tannins structure towards the end. Medium to full bodied with good intensity and mineral nuances. Transitions to finish is seamless with some chalkiness and a long after taste. Ready to drink now and will continue to age for the next few years.

Retasted in Aug 2022, Intense blue and black fruits, tobacco, aniseed and clove with hints of cedar. Smooth texture. Palate echoed the nose, full-bodied structure, leading to an austere finish. Still young and should improve with another 5 years of aging for the tannins to resolve and integrate into the fine aromatic elements. No change is score.
