Still very fresh, herbal notes, dried redfruits, soft tannins, medium-long finish, this has held up very well, love the lower ABV (12.4%), which I’d guess has kept this fresh and lively.

Quite delicious with great opening of balanced soft tannins at the beginning of the bottle. Certainly was time to drink as it became quite bland by the 2nd glass.
