November 19, 2023 - Decant for a good 2 hours.
We almost feared it had past due date.... but bit by bit, it opened and delivered its full potential.
Superb length, nice cherry notes... a delight -

The juice is well extracted, with strong notes of ripe cranberry, rose and menthol, delicious now yet may be even better later when the bright fruit flavors may yield to the sappy, tar and sweet cherry aromas. Not quite equal to the power and length of the '01 but darn good.
