This needed a couple of hours in the decanter, and then it blossomed. Very smooth mouthfeel. Silky. Classing southern rhone pepper notes, with dark fruits. Very enjoyable.

Much better than the last bottle. Gave it more air. Still a fairly light bodied wine, but this time it has pleasing bramble fruit and good acidity. Quite enjoyable. Will leave remaining bottle for a year or two.

Good value. Needs to be open for an hour or two before it starts to come into its own. Still lots of life left here.
