Opened early and decanted for ~2hrs. Beautiful fruit, great structure and an outstanding pairing for ribeye. Several folks commented on how good this was. Quite tannic at first and definitely needs air (or more time in bottle) but this is a beautiful wine that is very worth while. Not a cheap date, but omg worth it.

Great balance. Deep red color with dark fruits and pencil lead shavings. Medium to heavy tannins that gave way after being open about 90 minutes. Wine got better with each sip and finish lasted 30 plus seconds
