Really loving this. Slightly reduced on the nose at first, now it’s showing lemon, straw, melon. More tropical on the palate, nicely integrated oak, bright acid. In a great place right now.

Diam 10 cork. Fairly reduced on nose and palate for first couple hours. Reticent fruit on the palate - perhaps an effect of too much reduction. Lemon-mineral forward. Just a hint of honeyed orchard fruit on the back. Tartness that starts out disjointed but integrates with air. Steely texture. Hard to read if this will blossom but a bit austere at the moment. 87
Day 2 - a touch rounder but still not all that forthcoming. 88

Just a little bit of bacon to the nose. Good dexterity on the palate. That is really darn good. And rich on the palate.

More tropical fruit and pineapple. Flush mid palate, and then rounded. With some power.
