Three hour decant. Rusty ruby in color. Medium to full bodied. Sangre, dried roses, dusty, iodine nose. Hint of cedar. Dry, some nice woody notes. All tertiary flavors now. Everything integrated nicely. Really good wine for the price. In its zone now. Drink or hold. Liam stopped by.
Cheers.

Long decant. Dark ruddy-brown burgundy in color. Full bodied. Has entered its tertiary stage. Some iodine and pencil shavings off the nose. Wet cotton. Tastes like the nose. Some barnyard and forest floor evident. Longish finish. In it's drinking window for sure. Case worthy wine at this price. Good juice.
