  Tasted at a wine shop after a long discussion with one of the staff. Translucent, ruby crimson with a slightly orange edge. Bose shows some prune notes early but they faded with some time in the glass. Otherwise, rose petals and minerally cherry with earthy and spicy hints. Palate was high in acidity and medium high in tannin but still quite enjoyable with some swirling at this still early age. Nice texture, though still slightly drying in the mouth. Subtle cherry, balsamic and some game meat on the finish, especially later with air.
  Enjoyable! Probably a mid-term to long term keeper.
