No decant, which was a mistake. Young, noticeable tannins on the finish, but still quite lovely. A good mix of darker fruits, nice acid, and a long finish - old world, with a foot in new world. Seems like a wine that would have fans from both sides.

Decanted for 2 hours. Off the nose, plum, blackberry and hint of earth. On the palate, blackberry, blueberries, plum, earth, tobacco. Soft tannins, a longer decant likely brings additional notes. Will wait to open remaining bottles after 2021.

Plum and something earthy on the nose. On the palate, black cherry, plum, and notes of lemon and earthy spice on the medium to long finish, with light tannins and good acidity. This was an average to good value at a little under $50.

Lovely fruity with some sweet notes on the balanced palate. Bright and powerful yet integrated and mellow. Lovely mouthfeel with long smooth finish.
