Smoky reduction dissipates w air, but not much. An off-putting sweetness emerges like burnt coconut. Not flabby but could lose a few Kgs.

Too reductive. Even on day 2 the struck match aroma dominates everything else. Seven Springs is the better wine.

Gold color. Minerals, grass on nose. Full body, prominent acidity, dry. Lemon zest and apricots on palate. Wonderful!
