Just a touch of smoke in the nose, with dark fruits and plum in the mouth (not a big wine in the mouth), and a very light pepper in the finish.
I didn't think this was very drinkable immediately upon opening, but after 3 days it is just fine out of the bottle or through the vinturi. I recommend drinking this wine a year ago... or soon if you still have some.

This was not palatable upon opening, but two days after opening it was just fine from the bottle or through the vinturi. I wouldn't take the chance on cellaring this much longer.
So two days after opening the bottle, it's just average: the bouquet is harsh with alcohol smell. Pretty dry in the mouth with some plum and dark fruits. A nice dry finish with moderate pepper.
