Decanted 3 hours by the last glass. Stayed about the same. Little tighter than I remember.
Black fruit, herbal notes, cedar, cassis, anise, cedar, candied cherries and finishes with charcoal. I think the wine is an uninteresting window between the fruit and mid palate Recommend holding.

Dark and brooding Dusty, oak, ethereal. Powerful nose Soft, grippy, loads of dark fruit. Oak is there. Still refined. This wine Is delicious! Give it another 5 years. Really good juice!

1-hour decant; prime rib-eye with Bobby; very primary, rich dark fruit - impressed how well-balanced this was for such a young wine. I expect this will be something to admire in 3+ years.

Enjoyed at Lakehouse. Solid wine, even this young. Black fruit with dark cherries, earthy undertones, ripe figs, and some faint floral notes. Great mouthfeel and tannins. Full body, medium to long finish.
