Decanted an hour and consumed over 2. Nose shows a darker side with dusty licorice, spice and cedar...yes there is oak on the nose. Taste is more fruit driven with good--no really nice--acids. Black raspberry, boysenberry, Asian spices with a kiss of oak. Maybe lacking a bit of acids but this is nice. Really enjoyed the nose; wish I had more to see what would happen in a few years.
