Saturday, January 27, 2024 - I've never tried these so wanted to pop one young and get a sense of for the wine.
(5/5) - color is a gorgeous dark ruby red.
(12/15) - A bit one dimensional even after being open a few hours. Tar, olive, licorice. Fruit and any spice seemed to really be hiding
(17/20) - This is where it was most clear this was opened too young. Ripping tannin, acidity in balance but still noticeable. Carried very earthy notes of tobacco, tar, olive again, dark fruit.
(7/10) - I'm not sure I immediately get the allure but it is still a fantastic wine that will absolutely improve with a couple decades and more of longevity ahead of it. Will try not to open another until 2030.
