Did not decant and found this to be closed and boring. Good cherry flavors and some cedar, but otherwise closed up. Will certainly decant for a bit next time.

Took a while to open up. Drank over a couple days. Started off tight and tanic, but by the end was drinking fruity and almost acidic. Nice bottle. Can’t wait to drink more.

Excellent nose with ripe fruit with a gentle balance of earthiness. Medium body with well integrated tannins that prop the wine up to the somewhat short finish.

Clear ruby color with bright tart cherry fruit upon opening with a bit of raspberry. Secondary flavors more predominate with pencil lead some leather and a medium body still showing some legs. Enjoyable without food and went well with homemade pizza pie. Probably close to drinking up as the fruit is fading....IMHO

Nice fruit that is still lively and fresh. It does have some nice developed complexity and tasty drinking.
