  4/28/2024 - Tony Molester Does not like this wine:

  Excellent fill level
  Long single piece cork
  Sieving recommended.
  Tasted over 3h undecanted.
  
  V: dark red, high opacity.
  N: slightly stewed fruit aromas, a bit spirity.
  P: the mouthfeel is plush, with very little tannic grip. finish is hollow, some bitterness and alcoholic heat.
  
  Overall, out of balance between over-ripeness and the expected flavour intensity. I’ve had many vintages of this wine and this is a weaker vintage.
  
  Drink or hold, limited upside anticipated.

  I’ve been following these wines for a while. This vintage is my favorite.
  
  N: a bit of brett, some leather, and earthiness.
  
  Palate is smooth, tte finish is savoury and long and the alcohol (15%) is well integrated.
  
  Drinking at near peak now.

  Ullage at low neck.
  Single piece cork. Signs of seepage.
  
  Tasted over 2h.
  
  Seriously this was very youthful, showing some high toned fruity notes behind a very earthy palate.
  We have had plenty of dead wines that were about this age and this was delightful.
  
  Drink up!
