Rich flavors of fruit upfront with a silky glycerin mouthfeel finishing with smooth tannins and a taste of anise. Drank this tonight in honor of NASA OSIRIS-Rex probe landing on asteroid Bennu. This would benefit from a bit of a decant. It has the stuff to go for several more years.

Three hour decant. Deep dark magenta color. Walnut, blackberry, black cherry Jolly Rancher, cinnamon, lilac and basil on the brooding, syrupy nose. Smooth, satiny palate. Full tannins on the medium long finish.

90 min decant. Deep dark purplish magenta color. Thyme, no. 2 yellow pencil and lush cherry frosting on the nose. Grippy palate. Firm, full tannins on the medium long finish. This is drinking a bit tight at the moment. Needs time.
