Vinturied into decant, Deep purple slight bricking, full bodied and easing tannins at this point. At or slightly past peak here, had some age funk that disappeared after and hour. Drink now 2022

Polished wine in a modern style with plenty of fruit. Cassis and tobacco aromas and flavors dominate. Full bodied, finely textured in the middle, with an earthy finish. Mouth coating tannins. In a very good spot, though I suspect it could improve. Right now it is excellent in balance, but not showing complexity of bottle age.

Triple decant to get it unwound..still not ready, after an hour ++. The pedigree here dictates the issue, It has al the right colors, nose and body, It's simply too young. Another 3-5 will reward the patient ones.

I love good Carmenere! Full-bodied, very aromatic with blackcurrant/rasberry aromas, medium+ acidity, very good lenght. Really nice bottle of wine at a good price.
