It’s consistent with the last (barely there) notes. Fruit is there, tannins are down and has some acidity, maybe from age. I’ve got one more bottle and I think I need to drink it, but not before Christmas.

Slow o'd and consumed over five hours. A little tight out of the bottle but started peaking after two hours. Good acidity. Lush and fresh with dark fruits and chewy mouthfeel. Very young.

This baby is singing tonight! Transparent brick red with a somewhat muted earthy nose. In the mouth this is a big, rich, luscious, juicy, mouth watering, firm tannins, fairly bright acids, big legs, dark cherry fruit flavored, round and full on the mid-palate, a hint of herbaceousness on the finish, delicious wine! Yeah baby! This wine can age for years to come.

Deep ruby, aromas of ash, minerals, wet earth, black fruit, violets, b3, a3, t3, firm w/drying tannins but very nice overall
