Opened with a quick taste and then decanted for 2 hours. Initial thoughts upon opening were great color with little browning, Nose was pure fruit with a little bit of dust. Tannins stilll provide some backbone but are soft. 2 hours later this is a very nice soft wine with structure. Dark fruit. Really nice. This bottle would have had 10+ more years of life.

Horribly corked. Could smell it as soon as the cork came out. Down the drain it went
