Pop and poured but enjoyed over a few hours. Nose is deep red/black fruit with prevalent spices. On the palate, it’s medium-plus but more fruit and less spice. Palpable that it’s on the higher ABV but not overpowering. Finish is enjoyable and lingers with cola and darker fruit. At age 12, it’s time to drink, but these will last a few more years yet. Enjoy!

Dark red fruit, took a bit to blow off the bad breadth. Developed nicely, reminiscent of Vosne-Romanee Burgundy. Probably better a few years ago but still delicious. Let it breathe for 2 hours, no more.
