Drinkable but not much to it. Decanted for over an hour. Had with steaks. Red/black fruits on the nose but disappointingly flat palate. Medium body and tannins; medium to high acid - short finish. Didn't have to dump it, but would not buy again.

After 2 hours decanted, warm spice and dried fruit on the nose. Palate is blackberries, cooked strawberries, some oak and actually some spice that I didn't expect - not jammy. Medium to high acid. Med tannins and long finish. Enjoyed with a Potlatch spiced pork chop and habanero maple glazed brussels sprouts.
