  Really good. First night with a 30 min decant, was fantastic in nose and palate - the tannins bit a little hard, but after bottling it back up, the second night brought more pleasure.
  
  Would do a decent decant on this. 2-3 hour prob make this great to go.

  PnP. Big, bold, doesn't need a decant. Aromas of blackberry, chocolate-covered cherries, smoked meat, earth and cedar. Rich, loaded with flavor, black fruits, earth, exotic spice, cherry and cedar. Fine tannins in the long finish. Beautiful balance. My last bottle, but years of life left.

  I’ll go with the crowd on this one. Lots going on, good flavors and not too tannic, especially first night. May have needed some food later, or more age. But lots to build on.
