Consistent with other reviews. Full body, dark fruits, moderate tannins and a medium finish. A very good wine with just about anything. Day two was shut down a little but still good. I think this would hold for several more years. The alcohol is very high in this- I had a non-wine drinking guest who enjoyed her glass very much but then proceeded to fall asleep on the couch and was out for the night haha.

Splash decanted and drank over next 90 minutes with cheeses and then roasted chicken dinner. The fruit has softened, but a substantial amount of nice spice still remains. While not overly complex, this is a decent wine drinking now in its sweet spot.

Decanted thru aerator and strainer and drank over two days. Dark fruits with nice spice. Still a little sweet. Moderate finish.

PnP at dinner party. No detailed notes. Nice wine. Perfect for low-key party.

Drinking much better now than 18 months ago, still very forward with the fruit and a touch of bell pepper.
