PnP, then finished the bottle two evenings later, and it showed much better on the latter day. On the first day it was quite dense and with deep earthy and ferrous notes which made it somewhat tough to drink. After two days it relaxed quite a bit and became much more enjoyable and drinkable, though keeping a sense of firmness.

Drunk over two evenings, this was a bit grumpy the first one (though without the heaviness remarked in the previous note), but much more gracious the second. It drank very well with food.

PnP then drunk over two days. First impression is of good freshness and some lightness. Then on the midpalate it already gets some weight - too much dry extract? It continues like that towards the finish on licorice and salinity. I think they pushed too much on the extraction - they didn't spoil the wine completely, as I kept coming back to it, because of a good aftertaste. But still, the midpalate till finish part is a bit too heavy and drying.
