  Nose of earth and spice, with little fruit. Not a negative, just that this is an earthy wine.
  
  Earth and dried herbs dominate the palate, with black fruits playing backup. Young but tasty already. Slightly improved over nearly a year ago.

  Garnet red.
  
  Dark bramble and cocoa powder, kind of an acai flavor. Smoked meats. Cinnamon, Savory, Spicy BBQ sauce. Creamy and smooth with powdery tannins. Like a Warm hug.

  Taking one for the team. No surprise that this is young so I'd recommend at least a year or a long decant. Consumed over a two-hour period from a PnP. The nose is full of candy apple and cherry. The palate is more restrained with red fruits and a bit of jam, specifically raspberry and strawberry. It's slightly bitter on the finish but again, it's a baby. My wife and I both like it so I'll let the other bottles age and try again in a year.
