2021 vintage. Last tasted a week ago (9.3). Everything I said then + a caviar bump this tasting episode. Unexpected lushness hand in hand with likes to fight guy...er...tannins. Ridiculous juice now. Dunno where it'll land in a 5-spot but guessing it'll be a pretty perfect landing. 7.23.24.

2021 vintage. Yeah. Medium-heavy bod. Tremendous richness in the frontal palate finding a durty backstory on the finish to complete the project and destroy the competition. This is one of those "I've never had a" wines that catapults tasters into believers/disciples. Forget the Kool-Aid and pour this instead. 7.17.24.
