One hour decant and poured through a vinturri. Medium-dark ruby-garnet in appearance. Crushed rosemary, red and black cherries and cherry pits on the nose; has a bit of that barnyard funk as well that hovers around it. Palate's getting some buttery unripe raspberries, black peppers, green herbs and touches of white fruits like unripe pears or so; also am getting some of the sweet and sour candy profile as well with some hot tartiness with its medium finish; makes me wonder if there is some marsanne or roussane with this. This is drinking well right now, don't think this will develop anymore.

Modern style drinking quite well at present. Soft fruit without too much forest floor.
