UCD wine group (one year anniversary dinner) (Holger and Shelley's - Denver, CO): Initially closed so was decanted 90 minutes with great effect. Red core with orange-brown on rim. This had an almost wild nose of flowery, tarry, iron-like currants. Really captivating. Wine enters palate with a spicy, almost sour cherry character, that quickly gains both weight and a fine, bright texture. Medium plus complexity and some finesse. Pleasing expressive length.
