Not much nose after opening. Ruby in color. Palate of wild cherries and oak. I think the fruit is fading on this; decent drinker, but nothing special. Drink up. Day 2: Developed some raisiny note on the nose, color is burnt garnet, palate still shows wild cherry, but some not entirely pleasant stewed fruit is emerging. Confirms my impressions from yesterday. Drop rating to 85

Not good. Waited too long to drink?

Heritage: Earthy, some exotique spice with some funk/old leather(could be a tad opened too long). Very good, complex, dark and rich.

Leaky cork. Free bottle since it was replaced. Smelled like fingernail polish remover.
