Left this open for 5 days—and it is still very nice! Solid dark ruby. Pretty nose, with dark cherries and a bit of bell pepper that was more apparent on day 1, when I opened it for Bruce E. Before we left for a Sonoma trip. Fine and rich, regal fruit in the mouth. I dare say this will last for a long, long time. 5-12-16-9: 92/100.

Sampled at Oinoscent, courtesy of a customer The wine shows bright ruby color In the nose, the wine shows a bit musky note, a touch earthy, green pepper/capsicum, fresh red cherries/currants. With more time you get oak note and a vegetal freshness. In the palate, the wine shows light body, high acidity that's out of balance at this point, lean, green pepper again, cherry, sour cherry, short finish Exprected more but it did only stay for 10 minutes in the decanter. Feels way too young

Very dominant acidity covering all other tastes. Seems unbalanced.

A cool wine, highly acidic. I thought I was a little unbalanced.
