Monday, January 1, 2024 - Decanted 3.5 hours in Zalto decanter and poured back in bottle, after that.
Tasted in Zalto Bordeaux glass

The nose:
Beautiful bouquet. Dark chocolate, purple flowers, liqurice, dark stone fruits. You can kind of sniff hos silky the texture is.

The palate:
Same from the nose. Big beautiful bouquet again. Purple flowers with the chocolate, a great combo. Liqurice as well.
The fruits comes secondary on this and when it kicks in so beautiful with Blackberry blackcurrant, plum.
Fresh, vibrant, extremely silky texture, its melting in your mouth.

Tannin medium+
Acidity medium
Body medium+

Its random that I picked this wine for New years, but the level of fruits, the bouquet and the secondary notes matches up perfectly in the wine, to drink at this time of the year. You know, Thanksgiving, Christmas and new years. At least for me.

Not quite done with the development but fantastic at this stage, after a good decant - you just want more and more
