Was a bit more advanced than expected. Peaked within 45 minutes in glass and then went downhill from there. Rec 20 minutes into decanter. And then put down in the next 2 hours.

Mm mmm! Super from the getgo. But from advice from prior note I gave it 90 minutes of air, which softened it a bit and eased up the over the top fruit density. Still youthful but so good, I feel great to drink now. Have yet to finish the bottle so I may come back and change rec if it evolves into something even better. Basically I'm saying little risk in holding or giving it more air.

Good example of PS. On elegant side (for a PS, don't get me wrong). Better with more than an hour of air. In a good place. Could get little more complex with some of the fruit fading - would drink within next 3-4 years.
