Took forever to calm down. Give this at least 2 hours.

Dark Red with aromas of red fruits, floral perfume and spice. On the palate cherry and red fruits mingle with exotic spice. This wine has firm tannins, toasty oak character and a good jolt of acidity. The finish ended medium with some mineral tones. Tasting Sample.

Redi for some Oak, despite the softer finish. Average bottle.

Some interesting hints of barnyard in the beginning on dark fruit. However it disappointed at the end. No structure. No finish. Rapidly fell apart after decanting.

Subtle acitone notes, some cinnamon, red berries on the nose. Spicy cinnamon, some mint, red berries, with some more cinnamon on the finish. Full bodied medium acid, tannic. Pleasant wine.

Bought several bottles on WTSO. Agree with comment that it needs to open up for at least a day. Gorgeous on day 2...smooth and silky.
