Unlike my first bottle 9 months ago this wine has evolved nicely. Great nose, without decanting it showed Rich black cherry/ cassis fruit with a lasting finish. Glad I held it for a while and hope it continues to evolve nicely.

Received a case today and popped a bottle to have with lasagna. First impression upon opening is not memorable. This wine needs more cellar time to evolve. Aerated and drank over the course of an hour and it developed nicely like prior vintages. After an hour it showed decent nose, subtle raspberry fruit and a moderate finish. Plan to hold it at least 6-9 months before opening the next one.
