  Pop n poured. Little funk on opening. Some dark fruit left with leather and bandaid as has been mentioned previously. Tannins mostly resolved. No reason to wait to finish these bottles

  Still drinking great, even on PnP. Solid acid - great with steaks. Tertiary flavors and drinking like a left bank BDX with the funk.

  Encore bien jeune ce vin !
  Fruits mures, graphite, légère touche terreux, tannins encore asséchants, un vin nous amenant en rive gauche Bordelaise mais avec cette touche plus chaude américaine.
  Un vin serieux, complet qui va tenir encore un 10-15 ans sans problème.

  Lots of leather on nose. Taste very barnyard with some red currant showing thru. Had a bit of brett to it, but very trace amount. Still a delightful wine, but just a bit of that Bandaid taste especially on the finish. Did not decant, which I would definitely do on future bottles. Personally, don’t see this aging much more past this point but very delightful right now.

  PnP. Sensory conterno. Lovely and mature. Pleasant nose of leather rubber and tar. Initially a bit tight on the palate. Leather and rubber, hints of mushroom, and a slight bitterness on the finish.
