  Tasting on Day 2. Nose is intriguing - brambly, meaty, some bandaid. Really quite interesting. Mouthfeel gives a textured, quite deep, red fruited experience. The finish is quite long and shows well with perfectly balanced, ripe but lifted fruit. This is showing even better than last bottle. As I noted before, the wine was quite unsettled at first bottle; time has paid off. Full case purchased as cellar defender. Quite pleased in that regard, as I believe the wine will continue to improve and give a wonderful drinking experience over the next few years for US $34.

  Wonderful juice - even more delightful than first bottle. Some of its "wildness" has settled down. Look forward to enjoyable drinking over the near term.

  strawberries and pepper
  
  edit: so much better on day 2.
  The depth of the perfume, its interplay with the fruit and the pepper of the (I presume) stems is really quite seductive. I imagine this could even go a few more years with no worries, but it's so good right now.

  Consistent with previous notes albeit slightly less POP.
