Started with tight, sharp cranberry notes. Opened up and softened with a leaner body of flavors of tea, cherry, some plum in the background with ongoing stemminess and grip. Tasted from decanter over 3 hours.

Pnp that opened up a bit with air. Slight spritz that was off putting upon opening that blew off over 30 mins. Nose grew more expressive. Nice cherry fruit and balanced mouth feel. Nothing to elevate the spirit tho

This has aged significantly in the past couple of years. The meniscus was tea colored and the fruit has dried. Overall it did not have the intensity and vigor of prior bottles. Overall just a bit muted. Still a decent wine with good balance and a silky texture, but not up to the 92 point ratings I gave previously..

Alcohol is still noticeable. More years before desired drinking window?
