Decanted. Nice spice box and fruit. Super smooth. Thyme, wild cherry, Mira bell plum. Cinnamon bark (savory) and slight vanilla bean. Really nice tannins

Tight as a frogs bum right now. Gave it a couple hours and it started to show more. Still disjointed but there's quality juice under the hood.

Absolutely fantastic Côte Rotie, old school with tons of smoked meat and white pepper, and then brambly fruit.

Intensely floral, lovely nose. Opened up after several hours, but never tasted quite as spectacular as it smelled.
