  What a cool wine! Red licorice, eucalyptus and spice on the nose with plums, current, vanilla nougat and bready fig newtons on the palate. Tannins still grippy and mild sediment indicate more room to evolve.

  Decanted for a couple hours.
  Nose is in your face. Spicy, chocolate covered plums with a noticeable eucalyptus and menthol note.
  Palate is very nice with more purple mocha fruit. Nice juicy element too that didn't detract from the structure.
  This shows nicely today. I also see some upside as there are noticeable tannins that are just beginning to integrate.
  Thanks Stu!

  Cherry berry. Smooth soft tannins. Very drinkable now.
