I brought this wine to blind tasting. Tasted at winery and thought it was spectacular. It was the first of eight we tasted and i think my rating was conservative as i did not know what was coming. Re-tasted end of evening and liked it better. Either it opened up or i loosened up, or both.

Still maturing. Took about 30 minutes to open up but then very smooth on the palate.
