Amazing wine. Opened it and never got to it so I recorked it for the night. Got to it two days later and it is just massive layers of plums, berries and cherries. Bit of alcohol on the nose but the mouth is nothing but fruit. Beautiful wine.

Bit funky up front but once that blows off nice smooth berries over an earthy core.
