Lots of raspberry, cherry cola and black tea notes. Great effort at $35.

After letting open for 2 hours it improved from how I would have originally rated but still not what I was hoping for. Not sure if I should sit on my second button or unload. Advice?

Intense bouquet of earth, ripe red cherries and rose petals. Silky tannins and bright acidity. Flavors of dark berries, fresh mushrooms with hints of vanilla and brown spices.
