WOTN. After a few hours in the decanter, the nose showed beautiful scents of macerated cherries and plums, dried rose petals, and gravel. Compact when first sipped, it unfurls slowly and persistently in the mouth. Full bodied and with great length. Still lots of tannin, but it's entering its drinkablility phase right now and should hold nicely for several years.

Wonderful. High tannin and acid, beautiful aromas of rose petals, this wine is just hitting its stride.

Much too young. Tannins still dominant.

Really beautiful and big as it should be. It will be even better with some time in the cellar. Tannic and strong like you'd expect, but very affordable.
