Ready to drink now and there is some slight bricking as alluded to, but I would still suggest some air to open up the wine and smooth out the denseness of this wine. Definitely thick legs and loads of intensity on the palate as alluded to so would suggest spending some more time with this wine in the glass to let it open up.

Wow is this in a good place now. Thirty minute decant and it was singing. Dark purple with a hint of bricking on the edge. Delicious flavors of cocoa, dark cherries and a nice mustiness of meat and blue fruit on the nose. So good.

This is in a perfect spot right now. Enough structure to hold it together. Integrated tannins. Full bodied. Thick legs. Blackberry on the palate. Medium finish. Drink now-2025.

I do not think there is any reason to hold this one any longer.

Dense, full-bodied dark red fruit; great depth, complexity, and finish.
