Medium ruby core with some bricking at the edges, the medium intensity nose is starting to develop with stewed cherries, strawberries, some tobacco, leather, and roses
Really intense flavor mirrors the nose, but the cherries are maybe a little bitter. High acid, m tannin, Go ahead and drink. This is good now and probably won’t improve much more

2nd of 5. No formal tasting note but this one left the impression that it still had some life left in it.
Seems like there’s a lot of variation in this vintage and it’s ready to drink, so if you have one, I think go ahead and drink it

Liked, didn’t love. Smells like struck match and almond croissant, but the mid palate is watery and I think it lacks a bit of acid.
