93 Points

Friday, March 1, 2024 - First night it couldn't be called fresh but certainly not overripe as these SB PSs can get when they're past peak. With 30 minutes of air it was quite nice. Complex but maybe a tad on the sweet side (grape bubble gum). Agree with prior note, not hot at all, surprisingly.

Second night, nose was still pruney and sweet at first swirl, but with air, sitting in the glass for 20 minutes, did wonders. Dirt and tobacco with a nice complex palate with a mix of black fruit (prunes included but without it being overbearing). Tannins moderate and with medium acid, it all makes for a solid sip.

For next bottle: Drink after giving it at least an hour or more of air. Then make sure the bottle gets drunk within a few hours. If u don't intend on finishing it, then bottle it up quick to keep it good for the next day, when it needs to be finished relatively quickly.
