November 20, 2016 - Medium Crimson colour. Requires some breathing time, or aeration for me, for the hot aroma to dissipate leaving cedar, strawberry and plum. Red and black fruits fight to domination. raspberry, cherry, blackberry and plum. The somewhat astringent tannin at the beginning eases into a smooth grained tannin supporting the fruit after a bit of air. A quite impressive fruit forward wine at this age but quite sure how it will end. Very enjoyable on a Sunday afternoon.
Just looking at my notes and apparently I drunk it too early, I was supposed to give it another 5 years.
