This was opened about 45 minutes prior to tasting. The wine was pretty smooth with no noticeable tannins or harsh edges. It is definitely ready to drink sooner rather than later. Overall a solid wine.

Popped and let breathe for about 20 minutes. First taste had some spice and varying fruits but this had quite a bit of heat. Over the next 30 minutes, raspberry and blueberry fruit started to become predominant as the spice subsided. An hour and a few minutes in, this was very well integrated as some cocoa and/or vanilla started to show, with a long smooth finish. Overall a great wine for the price.
