It keeps warming up and showing layers of spice, and the last legs of structure are still strong for (supposedly) being past peak. Lovely with the pizza.

I'm a fan of Justin's Tempranillo, and I had this vintage earlier in 2014, but this bottle had fruit that was fading so that the oak dominated. Dark garnet color, it has an earthy touch. I guess it could be entering a dumb phase, but I would be inclined to drink it sooner rather than later. I suspect it made to be drunk at a younger age.

Beautiful garnet turning to brick color. Fading bramble berry, fig, leather and hazelnut. Chewy tannins throughout, silky finish. Medium+ bodied, acid+, very balanced at the moment.
