Notes from day 2. Dark purple in color. Nose of dark raspberry, black plum, little funky earth, a little vanilla, spice. Palate of more black raspberry, a little bit of blueberry, a little dusty cocoa tannin and spice on the tail end. The finish is average in length and there is good velvety mouth feel. The wine is much more open than it was yesterday, so definitely needs time to round out. Needed a little more complexity for a higher score. Hold. 50+5+11+16+7

Dark ruby, structured and accessible. Modest tannins, nice fruit. Integrated and tasty.
