On opening both nose and palate were quite tight. Initially, the fruit which reminds me of cranberry and orange zest was subdued with prominent ferrous minerality and some loam. With time and warming toward room temp, this filled out, in particular the fruit making it more balanced, at least for my palate. Med+acidty and medium tannins. Initially a 90 for me, but my score represents my impression from my tasting hours later. This deserves more time in the cellar, or at least some significant air before drinking.
