This bottle seemed to show a little past prime. Clear bricking on the edges and moving towards secondary notes. Not that it was without charm. I still quite enjoyed it. May be bottle variation as this seems inconsistent with other recent notes.

Surprising little on the nose to start and was worried this might disappoint. With time some nice cherry and floral notes developed but surprisingly muted. On the palate this was a WOW. Medium to high acidity, bright, tart cherry, pomegranate and cranberry with medium tannin, great mouthfeel and a lingering finish. This seems in a very good place right now.
