Opened a Double Magnum of this wine. A couple of my friends thought it was past its peak. They said it was too "Strong". I told them to be patient. Well, we let it sit opened overnight. It has really opened up. It has mellowed out and you can really taste the fruit. Nice tannins. Glad it wasn't a waste.

It is decent. Opened last night and decanted. Didn't wait long enough. Glass was in need of waiting. Sat in decanter uncovered overnight. Next evening, it had a very slight sour taste as if it were going past it's peak. Hopefully, my other bottle will be better. I will do a better job of not leaving out not covered overnight.

A mouthful of "Bam"! Aging well! Fantastic! I think it's peaked.
