No decant. Cherry, mint and cherry cola on the nose. Palette was dark cherry dark berry, mint, medium acid and surprisingly still unrefined tannins. About an hour in turned into a violet bomb. But overall nice wine. Plenty of life left to age gracefully

Decanted for an hour. Super dusty on the nose and super acidic on the palette. Waited another hour paired with steak and the fruit just seemed muted. I am not going to decant my next bottle and see how it opens.

Nice bouquet and fruit forward nose. Rich but somewhat one dimensional especially given the price tag.
