Good, but beyond its peak. Initially a sour smell, but that was gone after 10 minutes. No sour taste at all. Instead some cranberrys and strawberries. A little leftover acidity keeps it fresh, a little wet leaves in the beackground. Tannins are pretty much gone. Best one hour after opening.

Opened the bottle on 4 days ago, smell of sausage, unpleasant sweetness. Very dark in color.
Today tried it again and gone are those bad flavors. Nice and pleasant, but I think there is no reason to wait any longer. My point rating is for today.
