This wine is beginning to show its class. Deep colour. Intriguing nose with good fruit but also complex aromatics, including notes of chocolate .Good concentration on the palate, and a long aftertaste. Still a little tannic even on the second day, but agreeably so.
Very nice now but it will continue to improve.

Lovely nose. Initially, very metalic in the mouth. But smoothies out over time. Worked into longer, more balanced Finnish. This was a good wine. Tim’s rating: 93.

Decanted and drank over two days. Nice aroma of blackberries and plumb, palate as well with a hint of red fruit and an herbacious note, medium gripping tannin and medium acidity. Overall a fruity fresh wine at this stage, primary, in the drinking window, but I think will get somewhat better in 1-2 years. A decent daily drinker for now.
