November 5, 2014 - Basic stuff. Light and transparent yet has some punch to it. Doesn't linger on palate, but is pleasant . Drink on a Thursday and move on.

April 2, 2013 - Dark strawberry in color nose opens with strawberry rhubarb and strong red fruit. After about 30 minutes it has taken on some oak and alcohol notes. Light to medium body. Acidity hits you mid palate but it is not completely balanced. The finish has more tannin than the weight and not a huge fan of it really. Perhaps this is too young but not a great first impression.
Day 2-3: I have to say that this got MUCH better with time. It was re-corked each night and a glass and a half each of the next nights. The tannins are more smooth. Still not a top pick but much more enjoyable. If drinking now, decant a few hours is my advice.
