On opening a kind of alcoholic mess really, and that was at cellar temp and without a decant. Looked at the bottle - 15.4%. Oh, okay certainly not one to age 6 years from vintage. Came back to it after about 20 min and it had developed some body underneath but still could not get past the heat and rawness. We had given up and opened a William Selyem anyway, so this just went down the drain.

Very nice. Big, full mouth, red fruit, high alcohol. I would bet better as cocktail wine, not food pairing. Drinking well now.

Lovely red cherry and raspberry aroma and flavors with pine needle and earthy notes. Well balanced acidity paired well Thai!
