Lots of primary and candied red cherry on the nose. A bit tight and simple on pop n' pour. More nuance and textural complexity on the palate. Give this some air -- feels quite young.

Bottle breathe for 1 hour. Nose with note of mushroom, some red fruit and smoke. The palate is a bit thin, with fade fruit, wood. Medium finishing. The wine opened up after another hour in the glass. Smooth and integrated. Nice and enjoyable drinking.

Nose is intoxicating. Soui bois, mushrooms, mellow red fruit. Wow. Palate falls a bit short. Quite a bit of tannin structure still present, but the fruit is on the decline. Overall it's perfectly drinkable, but really wish we had this 5 years ago.

Right out of the bottle this shows a sweet, cherry nose. Nice ripe fruit, yet light on the palate, and a solid finish. Not really showing much complexity, but a very enjoyable fruit-driven wine. A-
