I think it is a bit too young. It is not singing that much as I know it can. Its not showing any roundness at this moment.

Oct 30th, 2022Violet pink rim , ruby core still. Lots of black currant , cassis , tobacco , touch of nutmeg. On the palate more of the dark black fruits , quite fine medium tannins , tobacco, cocoa at the end , grafite also. Quite long and balanced , acidity is refreshing and the alcohol is also in check. Good from now and over the next 2 years , though I don’t think there will be a huge amount of improvement . Going back to it a day later , it is still going strong , no oxidation , nice black fruits , tobacco tinged finish. Harmony of the Seas , deck 4 main dining
