Gave it an hour of air. Medium ruby in appearance. Aromas of blue fruits and an earthy mushroom aroma. On the palate I get a bit of licorice as well. Not super complex but the aromas that are their have a nice intensity and its just simple and fun to drink. Good acidity and balanced alcohol, medium finish.

Exhibited secondary fermentation. Once that was rectified with Vacu-Vin + vigorous shaking, the wine itself was good, dark but not heavy, went well with red chili.

rich candied berries on the nose with the fruitiness of hot peppers, some dusty forest branches and wet autumn leaves and curious piney cocoa and subtle eucalyptus. on the palate a bold force of concentrated dark fruits, some spice, and sturdy tannins. all of this improved even more over 2-3 ours in the decanter. finishes a bit tart but not too acidic and still round and juicy.

This was good almost upon opening. Rich and powerful. Could possibly benefit from aging but is an exceptional value and delicious right now.
