Progressing ….needs 39 mins to open….dark as night ….dried cherries, anise, rosemary, tar…a bit of tii ok tannins. Think this will be better in 10 years

good stuff...have had better values. tannic and austere. Cherries, cola, spice, lots of tannins.

interesting...bought this at 15 years old from a retailer....seems like this will age forever. decanted for 2 hours per his recommendation. rich dried cherries, spice, menthol, long finish....still full of drying tannins...big wine that's out of balance. age won't help...worth $25 and am a fan. not sure that I want a ton of it though.
