little bubbles and the nose was exceptional. Apples and baked bread. The complexity has died down a little but still a lot going on here. Drinking window is now.

Garnet in color gave some indication that this has years left and it really does. nose was good but it was the strength and finish this has on the palate that stood out. Tannins are just starting to integrate and the finish went on. Wish I had more.

At first pour from bottle very tightly wound. Went into decant for 2 hours and it really opened up nicely. Still has legs to it for sure.
