Apr 21st, 20222017 drinking nicely. Dark cherry, hints of blackberry, rose petal, hints of mushroom earthiness, and strawberry. Well balanced with great structure. Can see this becoming even better with a couple more years in the cellar — would be interesting to see how some of the deeper flavors emerge as the acidity settles.

Oct 18th, 2021On the lighter and more floral side. Elegant. Strawberry and raspberry, hibiscus, with some vanilla and caramel notes providing depth. Slight acid and effervescence. 2017 drinking well now, would be fun to try it again in 2-3 years.
