Still underrated, still needs a good decant, kirschy and fine.

Another nice find from the Benchmark 'bottle room' -- excellent considering the $30 price tag, very good regardless. Took An hour and a half to start really showing

Fast forward 3 hrs in the decanter and every hard edge ironed out, soft, ripe red berry around a kirschy-smooth core. This’ll hold for years but don’t wait if you can give it a decant.
