Last of 3 bottles. Notes from night 1 but flat on night 2 so I don't think this will age well. Red with brown tinges. On nose, tobacco, savory herbs, sweet cherry, strawberry and orange rind (with air). Medium body/acidity and medium+ tannins with a long finish. 92+/- but not a re-buy for me. Enjoyed this on night 1 but fell off on night 2.

Decanted for 30 minutes and paired with grilled salmon. Black-red color. On nose, blueberry, saline, blackberry notes. Full body, medium+ acidity, medium tannins and very long finish. Flavor profile on palate was blueberry, blackberry and sweet cherry - still a young wine. Very enjoyable. 93+ and would buy again.
