Tasting SEP20: Grippy, minerally salty, slightly oxidative notes, somewhat slightly tart, herbaceous, vinous aftertaste, currently restrained acidity for 2012

Tasting JUL21: sensationally open, perfectly balanced, incredibly complex, gripping, shakes awake, higher dosage makes it a bit more powerful, masculine, long reverberation, quite great grip
