Entering it's early drinking window. Tannins are slowly integrating with moderate acidity, but the wine feels a touch alcoholic right now. Solid wine, but a little monotoned at the moment. Will probably wait another 3-5 years before opening another one.

Reductive on opening and a slight mousiness starting to develop on the backend. Tannins mostly resolved, but the fruit has fallen off quite a bit. Decanted and sat out for 6 hours which did improve the wine quite a bit. These just aren't drinking like they did a few years ago. Don't see any real upside to this anymore.

The wines from this producers are typically excellent showing vibrant, fresh fruit, acidity, and great minerality. This bottle was unfortunately super mousey and undrinkable.
