Decanted 2hrs. Started off with some funkiness on the nose... But flavor was clean. Soft blend of sour cherry and plum. No tannins left. May have peaked.

Not ready on first night -- too oaky and coarse. Tried it again on third day and it was the rich, dark wine I remembered. Wonderful structure that provides long finish with lift. Seems to have lots of life left.

Poured through the vinturi and decanted for 30 minutes. The nose is consumed with spice and now what might be turning into some dried fruit. This is drinking very well right now, the spice turns to leather flavors in the mouth but coats very well and has a nice creamy texture, with a nice medium finish - well integrated tannins.
