This was in a fantastic spot, opening up almost immediately with a 30 minute decant. Strong cinnamon and spice notes at the outset followed by beautiful sweet strawberry and cherry. An early astringency yielded to predominant red fruits and a hint of orange peel.

Needed an hour to open, but then lovely, yielding and soft white florals and appley fruit.

This wine truly is coming into its own with elegant red cherries, complex spices, and a strong acid backbone.
