Not ready by any stretch, but already enjoyable. Tight, but fantastic structure and fine tannins.

Modern, rich and dark. Granular tannic structure and some wet earth. Needs time.

Very rich and decadent, over the top. Has underlying quality raw materials but definitely overdone, not our thing and for us not worth the reputation.
