2018 vintage. Decanted and tasted after 45 minutes and 1.25 hours. Medium/medium-heavy body. Dropped the overt weight and starting to get more chiseled. The usual fruit and spice suspects without surprises. Would love to hit this in 8-10 years. Too well-balanced currently so it will be a difficult task to accomplish. 01.16.26.

Lovely aromatics of dark fruit and peppery earth. Not the biggest or longest impact on the palate, but an enjoyable and straightforward expression.

A mash up of sweet black berry and savory black olive on the nose. On the palette there is a core of sweet fruit surrounded by a bit of iron. Pleasant tannin and acidity. Really enjoying this one.
