August 16, 2016 - PnD 1/2 of the bottle let air for 90 mins. Dark purple garnet almost saturated with a plum to clear rim. Lots of oaky notes on the nose with cigar box coconut caramel and vanilla masking the plum and cassis that struggles to be heard (is a smell capable of being heard?). Medium weight with oaky tannins that need more time. Nicely ripe but not overly with notes of cassis plum black raspberry touch of tar espresso and licorice. A bit hot. Needs some time for the oak to integrate. Will see how it shows tomorrow after sealing and leaving in the fridge.
More balance and integration on day 2 with the oak more of a spice than a main ingredient. +2 pts. If I had more I would hold for 4-5 years or decant for 3+ hours. -
