2 hour decant. Plum colored. Nose has a slight funk, paste, mostly black fruit. Palate is a rich blackberry, raspberry, Coca Cola, anise profile. Robust mouth feel with a nice finish. Reasonably well integrated, very nice drinking experience, but perhaps not profound.

Lost tasting notes when saving...from memory, PnP. Plum color. Nose smelled remarkably like a frozen pizza...tomato, mozzarella, basil. Palate was raspberry, spice, black tea. Smooth mouth feel.

1 hour decant, deep purple in color. Nose is black fruit, a briny green olive element, something like Coca Cola. Palate is more red fruit, same Coca Cola aspect, spice. Slightly tannic/drying. For the brand and vintage, I was expecting more, but a well-made pleasantly robust wine.
