Drank over two days. This is still taking a long time to open up. On second day it was lovely with supple tannins, sweet acid, and red and black fruit.

Drank over two days. Nice but primary black cherry flavor on the first day. On the second it improved greatly with lovely sweet-and-sour acid emerging along with the cherry. Definitely give it a good decant if drinking now.

Drank over three days and it kept improving. Quite restrained the first day, but with air showed much better. Ripe red Merlot fruit and bright acid dominate the palate. This is a 2/3 Merlot, 1/3 Cabernet Sauvignon blend.

Decanted for 90 minutes. Nice blend with balanced acid to match the fruit (dark berries and sour cherry) and smooth tannins. I kept hoping for more impressive complexity/depth to kick in, but it never really happened. Still a pretty good blend, but a slight disappointment given the price ($48).

PnP. Ready to drink and right away. Aromas and palette were very unique and would be an amazing complement to high acidic foods.

Day one, tart cherry and unbalanced acidity in a medium weight wine. Day two, not better. Not very enjoyable.

Drank over two days. Rich, ripe Merlot blend without excessive bitterness.
