Taken out to a local BYO. Popped and poured. Still very primary with strong cassis characters on nose and palate. Tannins have almost all gone with this bottle. Long life ahead.

Had this over dinner at a BYO restaurant so pop and pour. Initally a bit raw and tannic. Developed over an hour and much improved by the time the last glass was consumed. Likely needs another few years to reach its potential.

Had on a picnic to celebrate the New Year. Smooth red fruits with a slight leather background. Ready to go now.
