would have been a point or two (or more) higher if it had lasted long enough to get some meaningful air - all gone within about 90 minutes. Deep inky purple, intense nose - could swirl and sniff all night long and be happy just with that. First thought that came to mind is that quality fruit does make a difference. Have a few more, will wait another year before trying again. Rich and thick, still a bit if tannic bite to it but the flavor of the fruit shines through, just outstanding.
