Color of nice cranberry juice with a hint of purple. Nose of dark cherry, oak, dried strawberries, vanilla, and a bit plumy. Taste is quite sweet vanilla, a bit bitter, low tannins, not many layers. Aftertaste is dominant by bitterness. Average.

I would have rated this much lower, if I had done so the night we opened the bottle. Upon opening it was still very tight and astringent. I put it away for a night and the next evening it had opened up quite nicely. Fruit forward but still with structure and a slight astringency. Definitely let this open up, it’s just so young.
