Some pretty spice and surprisingly fresh cranberry character, but not much true tertiary character and there’s not a ton going on overall. Tannins mostly resolved; balance remains good. Drink up, but give it a couple hours of air to open.

A bit earthy at first, followed by notes of cranberry and cherry with a sourness to the fruit. The palate is full of sour red fruit with some spice and earth notes. Past its peak, this was better a few years ago. Heading down hill - drink now.

Opened by Allred after dinner. This shows bricking on the edges. Nose of dusty red fruit with an earthy funk. Drink up.

Faded garnet core with some bricking. Clove and cherry notes with bright underlying acidity.
