Had it blind. Been wrapt in tin foil in our celler since release. Hard to place but in a good place for what it is. Fresh acidity and some fine tannins, stood up fine to a niceamd rich autumn stew.
Wife liked it aswell, nice wine.

Such a nice wine. Well balanced and a joy to drink over a few hours to and after a big barbeque. Dark fruit, vanilla and cassis on the nose. Well balanced with good structure enough acidity and still a little sting of the tannins. A crowd-pleaser tonight.

Had with 2 other wines blind.
Placed this as second.
Good wine in a nice phase to enjoy now.
Loved the classic seductive nose.
