Maturing and I don't think will be getting better. Still nice balance of fruit and non-fruit aromas and flavors. Didn't decant and tannins were more forward as it opened up.

Needs lots of time. First night, after being open three hours, it was still to hot. The next day it really blossomed. Great nose of vegetables with a solid body yet relatively short finish.

Perhaps a bit past its prime.
Not much fruit left, no caramel- ok wine

Light on its feet, like a lot of reds from this region. Lasted well over two days. Great value.
