2019; Decanted 2H.
Nose has dried pineapple, wet plywood, dried lemon zest, dehydrated mango, vanilla and peach cobbler.
Palate has pineapple core, ripe yellow apple, clementine zest, mango with a nice bite of acidity.
So youthful! We're really looking ahead to how these develop over the next 6-8+ years, as that seems to be the sweet spot on this particular site. (Heck, the 2013's are still drinking amazing.)
24H Update:
Nose has overflowing pineapple & vanilla and crushed lemon peel.
Palate has warmed vanilla ice cream, mashed ripe pineapple with faded acidity. The vanilla notes are very present today.

No notes night...Just fantastic with 3-4H decant!

Feb 21st, 2022A brief Labor Day get together with some friends.
Hot of the truck, so to speak, just picked these up a few days ago and was anxious to taste. No slouch, as good as 2018, but really wants 4-6Y to really come together.
