Opened and let sit for maybe 45 minutes ahead of pouring. Somewhat reticent nose. Very minerally on the palate with rich blue fruit, giving it very appealing kind of bloody berry flavor. Very round and rich with a 30+ second finish. Still room to develop but lovely now.

Decanted for 1.5 hours and drunk over the following 2. Lovely, blue-fruited nose. Crushed blueberries and forest fruit, leather and iron on the palate. Lingering, 30 second finish. Very nice.

Great nose, again. It smells like an alcoholic cherry cough drop mixed with blue fruit, violets and other flowers. Smoky, bacon fat, red fruit. Rich, fruity palate with a lean, minerally backbone and a 30+ second finish. Fantastic.
