Significantly improved on night two. Night one had a bit of a green streak that took away from the wine. On night two, the green streak is gone, the earthiness is a bit mellowed with the fruit taking on more prominence. Black berries, orange peel, forest floor, green olive. Texturally this is terrific. I would just give it a long open at this point.

Opened for 2 hours before the first glass. This came screaming out of the bottle. Super bright red raspberry and blackberries with tons of acidity.
After another couple of hours this really settled down nicely. The wine settled into a really nice balance with red and black berries, orange peal, concrete, green olive.
Beatiful texture and weight. In a good place but still really needs time to open.
