  Really opened up over a couple hours. Beautiful cranberry turnover with forest spices. Green pepper early smoothed out to a subtle vegital notes. Not usually a fan of pure CF but enjoyed this bottle.

  Decanted one hour
  
  A seredipity moment: different aspects revealed by pairing with pork then brie
  
  Green notes on the downswing; red berries and structural tannins developing the start of a velvety mouthfeel, which, best guess, should dominate in two-three years
