Perhaps my aha wine (Winefolly quip). I decanted for 45mins beforehand, which is new to me. Has the colour of blood on a mince drip tray, with an after smell of meat (roast?). Initial smells of red fruit. A short body with fruit, then acidity, followed by a firm tannic finish in the front of the mouth. Perhaps also a hint of clove?
