Really opened up over a couple hours. Beautiful cranberry turnover with forest spices. Green pepper early smoothed out to a subtle vegital notes. Not usually a fan of pure CF but enjoyed this bottle.

A seredipity moment: different aspects revealed by pairing with pork then brie
Green notes on the downswing; red berries and structural tannins developing the start of a velvety mouthfeel, which, best guess, should dominate in two-three years

Smooth flavor, detect a bit of spice, but my nose is affected by seasonal allergies today.
