Good color, mild nose, acidity is a little overwhelming other palate tastes.
Tanins are still noticed.
Much better after a couple of hours, the acidity fades and the wine is balanced.

Medium body, almost light, smooth, gentle notes of violets and mild dark fruit. Went well with the risotto. Approachable now but can develop to maturity.

So much raspberry here from the first whiff on the nose right through the finish. I found this stuff to be quite elegant and regal. A great pair for a rainy morning at the cabin.
