Took bottle to restaurant to share with friends. No formal notes but thoroughly enjoyed this wine. Tried not to shake it up too much but wasn't very successful. Hence bottle was a little cloudy. Fortunately, there was less sediment than I expected and it still drank very well.
The nose was great an complex. A nice balance of fruit and spice. On the pallet the wine was balanced and still quite fresh. The tannins were well integrated and soft. Nice long finish.

Better than the previous bottle I had. More structure and edges were less smooth.

It was meh. Ok. Seems to be on its way out. Fruit is muted and more mineral elements. This wine is not meant for a long cellar life. Drink up.

Smooth but off tasting. Probably should have used a decanter and aerated longer. Much sediment!
