Monday, October 26, 2020 - My last bottle .... Sadly! As such it is an awesome wine. I will be finding more at auction as I note that they are out there at $50/ bottle

Tonight it is aromatic with berries which waft right out of the popped bottle and glass. Aromas are layered with hints of iron, asphalt and cherry. In mouth the wine furthers the fruit presence with a reserved but present cherry flavor which lingers for 20 seconds. The mid palette reveals complex earthy notes with oh so slightly tannic wild cherry, a hint of strawberry amidst a watery mouthfeel. Thinner then viscous mouth presence, the wine is rich, berry laden and balanced.

Well worth the current auction pricing in the $50's.
