  Score was for day 2. Wine was still tight and finally opened up beautifully on the 2nd day. Would suggest decanting

  Fresh out of the bottle a decent wine. However air was not kind to the wine and acids ended up dominating the wine.
  
  Will open another bottle soon and hope for the better. Gilles, Long Shadows wine maker, makes spectacular wines so we were very surprised by this one bottle

  Decanted two hours and it needs it. Too much air however kills it. Decant two hours then drink over the next hour. IMO. Dark black color. Malbec dark. How WA Cab and Merlot rolls. Nice flavor layers with Cab dominating but again too much air and this thing dies. Have never experienced this with any other wine. Trust me on this.

  Solid fruit. Tannin's grip remains.
