Friday, December 20, 2019 - Eastside Tasting Group End of Year Extravaganza (Newcastle, WA): Wow, the nose is reminiscent of the 55, but the palate is deeper and dustier, heavier. There is maybe a little muddiness or the hint of some salt marsh. Wow what a palate. Deep and plummy with fruitcake. Explosive fruit. Alas, this just wowed on first pour, but it tired just a hint in the glass whereas the 55 gained in intensity.
