Better drinking experience than last time but still a little underwhelming given the price. Medium-bodied, sour cherries, opened up nicely but a little monotone.

Nose: Black & Sour Cherries, sous-bois and some nutmeg/coffee aromas. Palate: Dark Cherry fruit, raspberries and bright acidity. Orange peel and some raspberry/chocolate notes. Wiine has great dimension in the mouth. Finish: Med Length and tart. Red currants pop with an underlying mineral/iron component.
To jflegler's point about brett ... this should decant 2hrs to get rid of that aroma. I definately had it on opening.
