Had two bottles this week and both had a hint of oxidation which muted the fruit component. Hoping this is not affecting my other 7 bottles but will put them on a fast track for drinking .

This is excellent. Drank over two days and it has such smooth medium body with complex fruit with a pleasing lingering taste. It lacks the concentration of much more expensive Bordeaux but it can hold its own with anything in this price range. Drink up now, it won't get any better.

Good varietal nose, fruit evident on palate with some earth starting to show. In a good place right now.
