Very floral and spiced on the nose with a hint of dark cherry liquor perfume. Ultra clean and light in the mouth, tastes more infused than extracted. The finish is long and perfumed and just a touch medicinal, quite remarkable in its fragrant continuation. Overall very light and, finally, a wine I'd call ethereal. Decanted four hours.

Opened and immediately this was so closed, decided to decant but it didn’t move this wine this evening. Poured remaining wine back into bottle and kept it in the fridge overnight. The next day this was immediately more open, the nose was more chambolle, with delicate floral notes, this improved with more aeration. On the palate this got better and more approachable through the evening. This was delicious. I easily give this a 94 pt on the 2nd evening.

tastes like it has a great future, it took a while to reveal itself... beautifully ripe rounded cherry without being cloying, floral, maybe some clay. there is a nice freshness as well. Really feels like it's only hinting at what it will become, and might be too early to judge, i'd say 94-96 range

Stemmy with noticeable oak. Elegant, intense red fruit flavors, persistent.
