Lovely. Thanksgiving outside with friends. Would not know that this is 14 years old. So much fruit. Well integrated. Nice acidity that suggests there is still lots of life for this one. This was nice.

Apr 20th, 2020Everything about this was superb except my note taking skills. Notwithstanding that, this “baby” still has many many more years ahead of it. Drinking nicely now, but nowhere near peak. Silky smooth. Dark red fruit. Really glad I have one more to try much later (and hopefully offer better notes). Drank on 8/25
