Don's 48th (Home): Mostly agree with joshbryer's assessment. Fairly restrained on both the nose and palate, with some green overtones. Not particularly complex or interesting.

Not a good showing. On first opening, showed some promising earthy elements, but that clamped down and this was pretty primary throughout the evening. Dark red fruits, pretty angular and masculine. This could resolve into something better but the bigger issue is the astringent and almost green tannin that dominates, and I'm afraid that's going to continue to be a problem as this develops.
