Friday, September 16, 2011 - Some barnyard funk upon opening, tight, closed, good color, not much fruit. Balanced but austere. Not very generous at this point. Let's see what tomorrow brings.....

Next day its bitter cherries but strangely nice. Its got a certain lightness which gives it a difficult charm. No bouquet left but no hint of oxidations whatsoever. It holds own its with a late Saturday afternoon snack.
