In the perfect place. Nose is all red cherries, some dark cherries, minerals and earth. So pretty and aromatic. Palate is ripe and juicy with knockout purity and freshness. So sappy and tannins are ripe but lithe and elegant. Just gorgeous. — a month ago

Nose: luscious cherry fruit. Pink roses lilacs. Out of the gate.

Palate: sweet sexy cherry fruit. Delicious. Balancing tart acidity.

So killer. Needed something bombastic yet focused tonight. This did the trick. Gorgeous nose of butter, minerals, sweet wood, and wafting wet earth. Classic. Palate is rich with great amplitude and killer acids and just outrageous length. The length pushes this to 9.5. The terrific purity here allied with the length is pretty thrilling. It just grips your back palate and does not leave. — 7 months ago

Just silly good. Nose was so sick. Porcini, fennel, light oak, like a scene in nature. Insane acidity and freshness and so complex. Dizzying. Elegant yet unreal intensity. — a month ago

Opened and decanted. Tasting earth, leather oak on the finish. Dark fruit up front. Nice but wish the toasted oak was tamed a bit. — 4 months ago

10 years in the bottle. Needed a weekday break. Tried over 5 days under Argon. This is excellent. And very classy. Closed at first - then after 2 days a real beauty. Deep dark cherry, 🍒 hint forest floor, bark, tannins almost fully resolved 13.5%. Hint Turmeric, black tea. Drink Now! — 2 months ago

Stunning. Cinnamon, brown sugar, acid, density. It sucks when you describe it like that. — 6 months ago
