April 26, 2020 - Stood up for several weeks and decanted off sediment. Now 2h later. Aromas of the barest hint of barnyard brett, black cherries, blackberries, just a bare hint of balsamic vinegar, mild stems, and mild sous bois. Nice elegant, balanced palate w black cherries, ripe blackberries, bark, stems, mild earth and hints of sous bois. Medium+ body with nice acids and mild tannins give structure to the wine. Nice finish of blackberries, stems, earth, and a bit of sous bois. Nice balance with some elegance. Getting some aged characteristics and entering its optimal drinking window for my palate. Wish I had another bottle to open in 2-3 years. Lovely tonight though.
