Very different from six months ago. Reticent fruit with greenish/underripe notes (and no, not identifiable as TCA). Hard to believe it's the same wine.
Ample cherry fruit with excellent acidity. Not wildly complex but that's a bonus when paired with a very complex dish (Thai-marinated duck breast). Superb value at $25ish.

Tasted on day 2. A big hit of cherry fruit balance by some firm acidity. I love the tension between the sweet fruit and the acid. Perfect balance. Very persistent on the palate. Very nice effort.

a better showing than my previous bottle, this one was more aromatically expressive, nice balance, subtle finish

pretty reticent on the nose and palate, it did come around some after a couple hours open
