Friday, September 29, 2023 - Decanted 2 hours , followed 4 hours in the glass.
A very bold, and almost hot nose with liqueured cherries, blackberry, a fair bit of pepper and some stony notes.
Palate is broad shouldered, slightly harsh tannins, even with plenty of air. Also here, I felt the alcohol, felt somewhat disjointed..
No transparency in sight, difficult to get a good read on this at present.
I think this is a wine to bury deep in the cellar and see if something could develop with time.
