Nose has dried dark red fruits (plum, cherry, blackberry), dried citrus peel, very wet leather, wet peppercorn and dry earth.

Palate has fresh/balanced acidity, sweet cherry compote, under-ripe raspberry, pomegranate seed, dry potting soil and tart blackberry.

Drink 2022-2030, wow!

Initially slow Ox 4H (Audouze method), then decant into 2000ml Erlenmeyer flask for 1H after noting the acidity.

Paired with Taiwanese Five Spice Pork (Lu Rou Fan | 卤肉饭) over Jasmin rice with lightly fried eggs from our private egg factory in the backyard. Locally raised NY pork (Kinderhook Farm, Valatie, NY).
