A bit confusing. I drank this a month ago and got a different impression. This time around while the wine is big, and jammy at some level it kind of works and there are some good things going on. Blackberry jam, smoked meats, spices and minerals. Big boned, showing some complexity, can age for a number of years more.

Solid, but for whatever reason, not as good or interesting as when I last tasted in 2019.
