Pop and pour. Notes from 24 hrs open (in the fridge overnight). On the nose: cinnamon/spice, raspberry, vanilla and a whiff of smoke. On the palate: lovely acidity, fantastic density. A touch more attenuated on Day 2 than expected. Excellent, but perhaps meant for early to mid-term drinking. Thoughts?

On opening I'd give it an 88 but after 2 hours it really started to come into it's own and I bump it up to 91. If I can hold on to what I have left it would be great to try again in 2-5 years. Lovely and good potential
