  Nose: Cassis, ripe dark raspberry. Palate: Prickly oak barrel on arrival, which transitions to black licorice followed by inky black ripe black raspberry; highly structured; chalky and hot tannins that pick up where the prickly oak began. On day two, the intensity of all the fruit, oak, 15.1% alcohol, tannin, and acid melds together into an even better wine than the day before; plenty of life left.

  Still very youthful and fresh. Great right away and improved with air to reveal layers of dark fruit and savory elements. There is tremendous depth of fruit with powdery tannins and wonderful acid backbone. This is in a great place now but should continue to evolve for many years given the structure. No rush.

  Big and bold and delicious. Didn’t need to decant but also didn’t have it around long enough to see if it improved
