  Visual: very light burgundy color, very translucent, almost violet with a hint of brown. Edges are colorless.
  
  Nose: Saddle leather, mature forest floor, and oyster mushrooms
  
  Palate: Sweet cherry and rasberry fruit, baking spices and some definite powder sugar, alongside worn leather mocassion. A moderate metallic taste comes prior to a short but nice finish.
  
  Fairly good, probably needs more air/time. Will revisit the other half of the bottle tomorrow. B/B-

  Transparent brown/burgundy color with pretty serious bricking
  
  Nose: Rasberry, black pepper and hot charcoal
  
  Palate: Very alive rasberry fruit, bright acidity, black pepper, cigar ash and a smooth, moist leather finish that slowly dries the mouth.
  
  Remarkably young and alive with good secondary and some tertiary notes. B+
