Nuanced and carries the cooler vintage profile well. Spiced, lovely red fruits, bright acidity. I like the spine it has. Raspberry and cherry tones, red meat, green peppercorn, smoke, resinous herbs, leather and granite. Tannins are textural but never drying.

1 hour plus decant, but could have easily PnP’d. Purple color. Complex nose with floral elements, earth, bell pepper, and livestock. Wine wasn’t as deep as I was expecting but was filled with blackberry, meaty flavors, and tar. Medium finish. Started out awesome (95) but slowly declined to (93). Pretty decent QPR.
