Naaah...popped and poured. Too young. Green peas, smokey cherry notes with some black pepper. Nose is plummy nail polish. Nice enough but unimpressive.
Second day: noticeable improvement! Nose considerably more mellow and balanced, the chemical notes are gone, leaving a more pleasant, slightly peppery note on top of ripe but bright red berries and fruit. On the palate rounded, light to medium bodied, well integrated acidity, mouthfeel pleasantly light and refrrshing. Red fruit, nettles, some herbal smokiness. Very pleasant. Lingers for minutes. What an improvement!
