  in total agreement, none of the "bad" carmenere greenness, just a great wine!

  Decanted and let sit for 10 min. Inviting aromas of black fruit - figs and blackberry - wet earth like fresh river mud. Very fresh. On the palate, med acid, med tannin - good structure without too much grip, med alcohol. Very balanced.
  
  Flavors evolved with more air. Spicy, peppery notes emerged after maybe 40 min. After an hour plus, strong cannabis or hoppy notes emerged.
  
  Great QPR with aging potential. Planning to buy more

  PnD. Let air for 30mins.
  
  Consistent with previous notes. Great fruit with some minerality and restrained Carmenere leafiness adding extra complexity. Great balance.

  Plum, spicy, jalapeño flesh, damp aroma on the nose and palate. Mouthfeel, acidity and tannins are medium. Length is short. Overall, this is a good table wine.
