Cork came out smoothly. First impressions: pale garnet in colour, browning around the edges and very light. First sniff is full of plum, cherry and pomegranate. Incredibly fruity. Also some spice and Coca Cola (??). Incredibly powerful fruit on the palette, like a NZ Pinot but… Californian. Also creamy notes too, but finishes with spice/cloves. Amazing wine!

1 hour decant. Fruity up front, with soft tannins and a cigar/tobacco finish.
