Air it a bit, it's goofy on opening. On day two it was more Cab-y and whole. Still has that brett, earth, green, but richer. Had an oddness and mocha quality on opening that didn't fit the wine.
Should be fine for a while, but really lovely now.

Almost very good. Middle weight, earthy, green pepper, touch of spice, but overwhelmed at times by very high acidity that cuts the palate and hides everything else. Perhaps this is a bit past it’s prime and losing balance.

has a density not present in lower-priced Loire cab franc to go along with mud-on-the-boots and (roasted?) green pepper that makes Loire cab franc so unique

Drinking so well right now. Definitely some life to go, but the first sip is so uplifting. If I had more bottles, I would have trouble waiting.
