Drank this over the weekend. Phenomenal. In a really good place right now. Still some tannins but as a previous note mentions they add to the overall taste -- they give the wine a sense of vibrancy. Nose is very clearly aged, extremely earthy. Balanced yet concentrated dark fruits with some notes of iron on the palate. Still decent acidity. Delicious.

Impressive. Cranberry, a hint of menthol, a hint of earth, and red berries on the nose. Elegant, light and feminine on the palate, but with a noticeably full and juicy mouthfeel. Slightly tart finish that will likely fill out with time.

Very primary at this time -- sweet berries all day. Great weight and acidity -- no doubt a winner with time, but too soon.
