needs some air to come together, the bouquet is explosive with an aromatic display of red and blue fruit, freshly snapped celery, citrus and soy, big and powerful with great presence, sappy flavors of blueberry, strawberry preserves, olive brine, plum and a hint of burnt orange, very complex already, a streak of acid keeps everything working together well

Opened and tasted over a 36 hour period. Opened for 4 hours previous to first taste. Amazing development over the entire period. Funk and barnyard upfront. Movement between cherries and strawberries tending to the sweeter side over time. Always powerful.

My wife and I had this at the 4/5/19 release party. It had a powerful, focused and funky nose of blackberry, plum, wild game, black olive, pepper and spice aromas. The palate was tight, dense and layered with flavors of blackberry, plum, black olive, mineral, pepper and spice.

Wonderful dark berry, mineral, floral, and earthy aromas with layers of complexity on the silky palate and long finish. Drinking beautifully!

Definitely too young, but there are already wonderful flavors and complexity
