This has a very bizarre nose both on pop and pour and after some air. Enough so that it impacted the whole experience. Once I got past the nose and gave it some air, it was drinkable and sometimes enjoyable with fruit emerging. Not sure I would buy again.

Dark purple, grabs the side of the glass; big nose of dark berry; tannins strong on 2010, but more complementary than dominating; this is a winner. 50+5+13+15+7

Dark and Brooding. Tried it on the pop and pour but decided we should have decanted. Heavy earth and chalky dry. A little too much to drink on it's own but better and enojoyable with food.
