This is a really nice bottle. Still very tight and I'd wait another couple years to open another. Once open has sour cherry, currant, dark berry flavors without much oak. This bottle had slight touch of oxidation (very slight) but hopefully just a cork issue and didn't really detract from the overall pleasure of a solid above average wine.

Decanted through a coffee filter for 2 hours with no sediment to speak of. More European in style. Vibrant acidity, prominent toasted oak, and firm tannin balanced with moderate fruit. Drinking well but likely stronger in 3-5 years, with plenty of life left for a decade or two.

This wine was surprising good when you consider its relative young age. Taste great now and promises to get even better in a few years.
