Saturday, August 19, 2017 - Pretty deep purple. Some oak and baked pie crust with the nose a little closed right out of the bottle. Nose after a one hour decant opens into some sweet fruit and florals - very pleasing. Less weighty on the palate than I would have guessed. Big lip smacking and lengthy finish on the dryer side with some tannin that makes itself known. Decant makes big difference as wine continued to soften over 2-3 hours.
