Wednesday, February 15, 2023 - Bottom of neck fill; perfect cork
Served without decanting
Musty basement on the cork
Wine is still dark with no appreciable bricking
Lovely scorched earth nose that gives way to barnyard and leather Drinking superbly right now. Still has some tannin. Raspberry and black cherry with tobacco and leather. Has an elegant mouthfeel. Initially ended a bit abruptly and fruit was a bit hidden behind the tannin, but after 15 minutes the tasting experience blossomed with fruit coming forward and the tannin far in the background. There is a lovely, complex and long finish
