Decided to compare 22 and 23. Oh man is this seductive. The nose is just deep ocean. Black cherry, dark red cherry, symphony of herbs, huge blackberry flower and blackberry and just so deep. The palate is just amazing. Opulent and just insanely deep with blackberry and black cherry fruit that is just so impressive and pure. Opulent and round and with insane purity. Unreal energy but the story here is seduction and purity. Stunning.

Sep 2nd, 2025First time since barrel in summer of 23 and it blew me away then. Gorgeous and pointed cherries on the nose, some minerals, bittersweet cocoa, spice, metal shavings and more. Gorgeous but will need some time to become more aromatic. Palate is a little discombobulated on the PNP but it’s all there. Grippy, dramatic fruit, amazing length and fruit density, gorgeous purity and grandiose minerality. It needs to come together though. It will. Really coming into its own with minimal air as that finesse is something else. And so so juicy. So fresh and energetic and what amazing fruit cling!! With air this comes alive with just exquisitely perfumed fruit. Perfect balance. Really great.
