Fruit forward on the nose with a little damp forest aura to it. Fully integrated tannins. Good complexity. Needed about 15 minutes to open up. No need to age further at this point, but it is definitely not past its prime yet

2.5 hour double decant. Very deep dark ruby magenta color. Root beer barrel hard candy, black currant, and molasses on the dark, sweet nose. Smooth and very dry palate, with nice, lingering acidity. Firm, low intensity tannins on the longish, acid-driven finish.

Medicinal and strange. Pencil lead is prominent. Tastes like it was stored in a chemically infused plastic bottle...for years. Glad WineSpies only fooled me into purchasing 3bottles.
