Young. Needs air. Pure cassis and blueberry. I’d let this age in bottle for at least 3 more years for more complexity. Or open now if you love fruit like Dunnuck.

As other have noted, this needs to breath. After 5 hours it finally started to show itself and the fruit started to peek through. Will not revisit for a few years, this is still would up tight. Very dark and concentrated.

One hour decant. Dark deep purple color. Aromas of dark red and blue fruit with spice, earthy and floral notes. Palate is full of red and black fruit with herbs and minerals. A nice touch of acid and smooth tannins add to a lingering finish. Interesting and tasty now and will continue to age well!

Darker fruit tones, prunes, with hints of leather. Significantly better with a 1-2 HR decant. Tannins were suprisingly soft. Long finish. Seriously, don't drink this straight as a pop-n-pour! Really needed the time to open up.

Another Andrew Will Washington great. Paired completely wrong with sticky bbq. But wonderful wine even without food.
