Nice dark color. Nose is a bit reticent that opens to earthy cherries on breathing. Taste is the same with a nice backbone of tannins. They are firm but well-balanced. Tasting really good right now. Killer wine for the price.

PNP. cork perfect. color light garnet. nose has candied cherry and some alcohol. swishing shows full on acid and tannin structure that provides a somewhat stern backbone. sipping shows earthy cherry fruit core that balances the structure and actually comes off as polished. benefits from air now.

Consistent with others though at times I thought overripe, perhaps at 90 minute mark. But that goes away.

Crunchy red fruits. Soft and fleshy mid palate. He compares it to 2003. Full and round to the context but not lacking minerality. Full.
