Drinking wonderfully. Smooth, no hard edges. Crimson to garnet in colour with some sediment on bottom. No decant but I let the wine open up and breath in glass. Earthy, berry, beetroot, aromas. A floral element. Medium bodied. Nice slightly sour cherry, strawberry flavours. Juicy, fresh. Last bottle, too bad.

nice sweet red fruit on the nose, a little lightweight on the palate however. A few detectible tannins but I doubt it'll improve much. I'll give a few months before trying again.

Ripe sour cherry, strawberry and leather complexity are still there but I missed the barnyard on the nose of this bottle. Light, balanced mouth feel with some ripe tannins supporting the structure. There is nice fruit sweetness on the finish. Still little young. Try it again in three years.

Sour cherry nose with a small hint of funk. Good fruit body with a decent finish. A nice wine if not a great one.
