Yes as mentioned cherry when opened, lots of tannin, but after decanting and over the course of a few hours it opened very nicely and by the last sips it was just hitting its stride.

Lot of cherry syrup on pop and pour, with some alcohol that needs time to blow off. Evolves to give dried cherry and cranberry with a lot of underlying vegetal notes and some vanilla, but the cherry syrup sticks around. Hard to get excited.
Few more years might do this one well.

Didn’t decant. While I get the cherry on the nose/palate, it wasn’t overwhelming. Nicely balanced blend with good acidity.
