Oak has tempered. Needs maybe a short decant. Elegant. Drank as aperetif with black pepper cashews and Indian nuts. Did fine

Drinking excellently after an hour decant. Enjoy within 5 years or so.
Powerful rose and spice scent. Elegant body with plentiful grippy tannins and a long finish.
Aroma of raspberries and vanilla. Lots of fruit. Nice acidity. Dusty tannins. Surprisingly little brick color for a 12 year old wine
As before, prominent oakiness and dark fruit. Flashy and new world, a crowd pleaser. Not sure there's enough fruit here for long term cellaring.
