Towards end of drinking window, but has mellowed quite nicely. Finish is shorter but pleasant, with hints of chocolate and espresso. Tannins were light as expected for the age.

Wine has agreed nicely. Soft tannins give way to a light berry and hints of chocolate, dash of earth and herb. Paired with sweet potato gnocchi with sage butter and Italian spiced chicken, garlic bread. Excellent pairing. Would drink at max in one or two years.
