2020 vintage. Last tasted 7.3.24 (9.3) and 7.23.24 (9.3). Still weird mix of pretty and ugly/grounded and flighty with medium/medium-heavy body but it works with the journey and the finish. 9.3.25.

2020 vintage. Tasted 2.5 weeks ago (9.3). This go round was a little prettier vs knuckle dragging but bottle wasn't open as long and juice had zero chance of hitting its stride with too many glasses to fill. Still...it didn't suck. 7.23.24.
