Ok bottle. Really not a lot of improvement. Tannins have softened but without any secondary characteristics. Pretty high acidity. Not sure where this is going.

Wanted to check in and see how this is doing. When first opened, almost brooding nose. Big tannins, mocha and chocolate. After slow ox of four hours, settled down nicely. Lots of acid, more than typical for a Hardscrabble. Muted red berries and graphite. Fine tannins. This should age quite nicely.

Drinking just beautifully. Opened wine for out of town guest from California. The wine was just fantastic and much enjoyed by the group.

Earthy and fruity on the nose. Smooth and bold on the pallet. Lightly tanic with a rich dark cherry and blackberry finish.
