  Aerated and let it sit in glass for 15 minutes. Wonderful.

  Decanted 2 hrs. Cork wasn’t in perfect condition with bottom half quite disintegrated but wine was fine. Dark red, orange hue, long legs. Fruit forward on the 👃 with persimmon, leather, graphite coming through in balanced way. Very delicious, juicy first impression. Dry, Strong tannins, highly acidic, full body, ripe raspberries, dried persimmon, watermelon. Very enjoyable now.
