Nose: plum, iron, vanilla, dark chocolate Notes: decanted for 45 minutes before consuming. It's a pity that there wasn't much floral scent or red fruits in this wine and I would say the ironic elements in the wine were quite prominent. I would describe this as a tad rustic and can't say I enjoyed this too much. Drink: now+ Rating: 87

Wow, just wow. Drinking really well. Lots of tart fruit, great acidity. Red tart cherry, coffee, black licorice. Really delightful. Definitely drink up though. Guessing will start a down slide as no tannin showing at all.

Wonderful all around experience. Opened and let to breath an hour. Deep ruby red. Wonderful dark tones of earth and coffee combined with residual primary floral nose. Beautiful feel in the mouth with silky tannins and persistent complexity as in the nose. Long finish with continuation of the all around enjoyment.
