Very much so oxidative style, acetaldehyde and amarone like aromas. Floral. Light body with some astringency and balanced acid- very easy drinking. Showing some age.
Caramel/amaretto retronasal, with red fruit and golden dates. More floral.

Right up my alley, I could drink this all night.

Jeff Wilson brought this over, and I enjoyed it. I would buy this if presented the opportunity.
