Thursday, September 8, 2016 - PopnPour, tasted over 2 hrs, bottle from secondary market
-med dark red minimal bricking
-quite pretty aromatics with warm earth brambly red fruit wet stone early hints of sweet decaying forest floor
-med/med+ acidity kicks in near the finish, med weight expansive on the palate with good depth if lacking a bit on complexity, some somber dark red fruits and bitter apple peel on a mostly soil base, med but soft tannins on long-ish finish
-drinking very well now on its plateau in early maturity, nose currently outshines the palate, I would expect this to continue drinking well for another 5-10 years and might even improve slightly if it gains complexity while further shedding tannins
