Somewhat muted nose that I am not sure will improve. Dark sweet fruit with a strong tannic background that lacked integration with the fruit on night one. However, went well with red meat. Kept on Argon gas and was much more approachable/evolved on night 2. Solid finish! Perhaps give it another 5 years but...

Beautiful yellowish color. Great balance of mineral and citrus fruit with a mild rich nutty background. Solid body. Just coming into its drinking window and will be so for probably the better part of a decade.

Still a baby. Wish I had opened in another 5-10 years. Some darker red fruit, brambles, lots of potential. Even tastes blind, would have pegged it for a Côte de Nuits.
