The wine looks ruby colored and it has medium legs. It smells like black pepper, forest floor, and black curran. It tastes like blackberry, fig, and forest floor and has medium body with a textured that is round. I enjoyed it's medium length finish. I would recommend some time on this but, it is approachable now with sufficient decanting.

Aromas of tar and wet leaves. Tasting notes of black cherries, pencil lead. Needs more time. Still quite tight even after 3 hours decanting.

I tasted this wine over a 3 hour period after decanting. Initially, it was closed but was clear, deep purple and it's nose was rather pronounced. It had aromas of earth, wet leaves and tar with a hint of dark chocolate. It had flavors of strawberry, earth, tar and even leather. It had a rather long finish, quite tannic and a hint of orange. It clearly needed more time. I found it much more approachable after 2 hours. It was very good with a mild cheddar cheese. The finish was quite long and was very good after 2 1/2 hours. The flavors were more integrated after decanting. I would guess that an hour of decanting is necessary at this age of the wine. Very nice wine.
