4 hrs open, 2 hr decant. Seemingly quite open on the nose, showing some development with both spice, warm earth and glimpse of red fruits. On the palate however, it's completely tugged away and shut down. Almost only structure and tannins in the mouth, this is difficult to like or even enjoy. Would love to try this again, if it ever gets back on track. Hold at least 5 yrs+

Decanted for 2 hrs. Initially abundant red fruit on the nose, then evolved into complex spices and earth tones. Palate likewise multilayered and earthy. Quite powerful. This is in a sweet spot right now.

This was way too early. Pleasant nose of licorice and dark cherries. On palate, a touch of oak and a long-lasting, mouth-coating raspberry taste. Pleasant but I´m sure there lots more potential with cellaring. Won´t touch the next one until after five years or so.
