Some red fruit but dark fruit also. Nose was heavier and more boozy than taste. Medium plus mouthfeel, and some alcohol/hot taste.

Good nose. Benefitted with air over multiple hours. Red and blue fruit. Firm tannins that dissipate daome but not overpowering. Good now and will age some

Dark purple color starting out. Strong presence initially that calmed out after 1.5 hour decant is sweet spit, started to fall off a bit after being open for 2.5+ hours in decanter. Some red fruit early on in addition to black fruit, which was more present at the end. Good finish

2+ hour decant. Opened up much more. Tight to begin with. Dark cherry on the nose. More vegetative nose the more it sat. Got much more smooth as time went on. Still medium + tannins, although they came in later, not immediate. Could definitely age a lot longer. Some sediment

Had decanted over dinner at Peppervine. Good structure and body. Could have used a longer decant, when swirling in glass with more air was very good
