Better on Day 2 or 3!; 6/2/2022-7/5/2022 (3 Day Wine Review World Headquarters, Minneapolis, MN): Day 1: Lots of wood on the initial pour that blew off quick. Beautiful wine with blueberries, Bing Cherries, dust, mild oak, vanilla, spice and minerals. Concentrated and so much better than the Carlisle I had a few days ago. 93 points Day 2: Significant decline in quality. A bit bitter and lost the nice fruit. More earth tones and not as concentrated. Don't need a decant and just drink them up on day 1 unless there is some memorizing transformation on day 3. 86 points Day 3: Just not bringing it so a 3 day failure on this one. Recommendation: Pop and pour and enjoy in the near immediate future.

Day 1: Very nice purchase for under $25.00. Will buy more. Dark purple. Roasted meats, smoke, earth, gravel, dark currants and coffee beans. Good concentration and medium to long finish. Should drink well through 2029. 92 points Day 2: Really nice on day 2 featuring sour cherries, dried leaves, smoke, roasted meats, gravel and red currants. A little less intense as day 1. 92 points Day 3: Not as good as day 1 and 2. A bit diluted. Sour cherries, minerals, lost the nice roasted meat character, spices, pepper and damp earth. Trust me there is nothing wrong with this wine on day 3 but it lacks the concentration of day 1. 90 points Recommendation: This wine will age but really is best to consume on day 1 and possibly day 2.
