I don’t think the 14’s or 15’s are aging well here. Nose has spice, ethereal cherries, gaminess, some heat. One dimensional. Palate is juicy and whole hella lot of heat. 13% and tastes like 16%. Wtf? Air only makes these worse. What a disappointment.

Just concluded our annual Fall seclusion into the Rangeley lakes region of Maine, mobile service up there is mostly non-existent, after several days I am posting again.
Smokey, vine fire, earthy cherry on the nose. 4hr decant brings mineral-biased cherries, dirty barnyard fruit, yum!

Nose is cherry flower. A hint of skunkiness but not a lot.
Palate really has not a huge amount of fruit. A tad vegetal. A tad hot. Still some juiciness. Some soft rather lovely cherry. Some good deliciousness.
Fruit is a bit soft. Otherwise I’d like it more.
I’m enjoying drinking this even if it isn’t perfect. I’m not either.
As this opens the nose gets cherry lipstick. Lovely.
