Wednesday, December 5, 2012 - Aerated in a decanter for 3hrs
This bottle was not as showy as the first, muted aromas with bare hints of red fruit and spice. Noticeable was the tannin, but the lushness of the red fruit just held its ground with the aid of a little acid. Overall not as memorable as the first bottle, but it was enjoyable with braised chuck roast.
