Not quite ready yet Seems like the wine is still hiding a little and hasn’t released yet Faint hint of cherry cough drop on the nose indicative of the area, but I think it will come on more w more bottle aging. There are more layers buried in there that just aren’t showing yet… Tannins and oak are still slightly out of balance. I coravined a glass and am writing this note 3 hours after pouring. I was curious to where this was at. I’m gonna give it a solid 3-4 years more of bottle aging

Given its age I was surprised how long it took for this wine to find its stride in decanter. Well worth the wait. After a couple of hours the tannins lost their edginess and it settled into a fine drinking wine. Well balanced with some secondary notes. Bummed there is only one more bottle in cellar. Will definitely let it age a while.

Pretty much agree with HOWELLMOUNTAINCRU. This wine is purple in color with a nose and palate of blueberry and vanilla. Balanced and smooth.Everyone enjoyed this wine.
