Spanish Dinner (Herald & Teni's Place, Hong Kong): Magnum decanted for 2 hours then drank over the next four. Freshly jeweled deeply opaque ruby. Nose is a lovely immediate attack of precise graphite, anthracite coal, coconut, gunpowder, hidden black fruit in the background. Nice clean American oak. Palate is fresh, nice bright acidity, bright red berries, some deeper toned black currant fruit in the background. Young but already approachable in a New World way although still quite tannic. Needs time to unfurl over the next 5 years but it is already open enough to try.
