87 Points

Sunday, January 31, 2016 - Wasn't planning on opening one of these for another 2-3 years or so, however stumbled across Jeremy Oliver's review that said drink between 2014-2017, so in the decanter one goes for a couple hours. Age doesn't appear an issue, deep crimson purple, structurally fine, decent mouth coating, tannins still quite dry, however the finish is a bit tart. Will try again in 2018, hopefully wine development will force my rating a bit higher.
