Almost worked ourselves through the reds.... but found o e we haven’t had yet!
Very bitter at first draw but just a bit at a time and let it open up definitely turned it around.

Good everyday wine. 2013 bottle, required a fair bit of aeration and then the alcohol softened. Chocolate and earthy, short finish. A few days later, chocolate taste was still there with the last glass.
