Oaky spicy nose. Dark red. Grape jam stickiness with Cinnamon, fig. black-tea astringency. It has a bitter acidity that reminds me of sweet-tarts; near unpleasant until it mellows after ~10 minutes. — 12 days ago

Good I think?, but not my style. It was tart and light, and this seemed to pervade over any other complexity. Got slightly buttery/creamy as it warmed, in a way I (for once) didn’t hate. Drank within 1.5 hours of opening, didn’t decant. — 6 hours ago
