Decanted 2 hours. Long (2" cork) in good condition. Medium purple, some sediment left in glass. Complex nose of Dove soap (floral), cherries, citrus, bubblegum, a bit of chemical, and oak. M body, high acid, high tannin. Alcohol 14.5%.
I drank this way too young. HOLD for a few more years.

Tannins still too evident. Needs more time.

Slow ox for an hour then decanted for another. Definitely needed to unfurl - rose, tar, sour cherry, cigar box. Provably better in a few years.
