nice mellow wine. slight barnyard that blew off and turned into mushrooms and damp earth. almost no tannins, fruit is moving to the background but overall a very smooth wine. it played a nice supporting role to dinner.

Lovely nose of dried cherries and raspberries wrapped around a slightly damp earth with soft well integrated tannins, solid minerality and a clean aftertaste. decanted for a hour and drank from Riedel Burg glass, this wined showed very well and kept begging for another sip. Too bad I had six people over and the bottle disappeared faster then a speeding bullet. not sure i gave it enough time to really show its stuff.
