PNP then drank over 2 hours. This was a still fairly tannic wine that settled down a little as it got air. Fairly fruit forward with some secondary characteristics starting to show. The only thing to stand out for me other than being still too tannic was an almost cranberry flavor within the fruit structure, Not off putting just a bit unusual. Definitely some darker barrel influences but they were muted at this stage and well-integrated. Decent wine but I don't think I would buy again. 91 now and not sure but it might improve with a little more age. HMC

Decanted 1/2 hr. Lively nose of dark cherry & fruits. Vibrant, consistent, full bodied tastes of dark berries & cherry. Big, long finish. Smooth on the tongue. Delicious.

In a great place now. Soft, round mouth feel, but still plenty of fruit. If youre fortunate enough to have some I suggest opening it soon.
