More like it. Definitely not a powerhouse. Delicate, almost Burgundian in weight, delicacy, dark cherry notes and acidity. Some funky oak that blows off. Light at first, puts on considerable weight in the glass. Could probably have used a decant or three and unsurprisingly pairs better with food. Old school all the way. Seems like it has structure to get better with even more time...
