Decanted one hour. Dark color. Nose a bit muted. Fruit is still you g and May improve with more bottle time. Medium mouthfeel. It might get to 91-92 but that’s it. Solid for the price but nothing amazing.

A bit more mature than my last bottle. All plums, tobacco, earth and more tired than expected. Alcohol is well integrated. Really good, but not great for me.

So I said I'd wait until 2022 until my next bottle. Strangely enough... I did.
Decanted and followed over 3 hours and shared with my eldest. Deep ruby but still a slight bit of purple hangs on, especially at the rim. 5
Nose is primary and remarkable in it's stubbornness. Could use time I suppose. 12
Delicious blueberry and red plum smothered in vanilla and alpine earth. Delicate balance between primary flavors, tannins, acidity, and ridiculous 15% alcohol. Somehow there are no sharp edges. 16

A bit of a raisined element to the fruit, very extracted.
