Should not have opened this bottle. Way too early. The second night it was much improved - black and red fruit, leather, spices, wet earth. I’m gonna let the rest sit at least 5 years. Might improve up to a 9.0-9.1 then.

May 20th, 2021Bloody, beefy, merlot nose. Dark red fruits. Palate is a bit thin, finish a bit short, but nice souis bois, herbal aspect.
Decent tannic structure. Would have like to see this 2 years ago.
