This should have had decanting and I think it will improve significantly. Popped and poured tonight.
A young yet light fruity nose. Tannins at 7.5/10. Clearly the acidity comes through in the nose and on the palate. Body seemed thin and this is where decanting would help.

A very interesting nose that was appealing. Green non-sweetened maraschino cherries. The best nose of the night so far.
A rounded and integrated body although it was on the lighter side (6/10). The body had a sweetness. Nail polish was a little problem that held this back then the finish went beyond that and was enjoyable.

A sharpness and heat on the finish.

Black tires on the nose which was not exciting.
Nice strong body 7/10 with high acidity.
On the palate smoother and balanced
