Improved since last bottle. However more bottle time will help. Decanted 2 hours. Lots of fruit. Dark red fruit, cherries, Spice. Good balance, acid and grip. Medium to long finish.

Sour cherry with some tobacco and coffee notes. As others have mentioned this has some serious acidity which goes beyond just brightening things up to being a defining characteristic. A bit too much imho but still a nice wine. Given this, don’t see why this won’t last a while longer.

Great nose, but strong acidic finish. 2018 is much better

Fresh red fruits. Tart & acidic. Easy to drink.
