Still going perfectly well. Some early must and vinegar blew off after a 45min decant, and left a very well balanced and delicate wine with a little grenache pepper still poking through... thang god, this was the third i opened on the night, a 1999 Bordeaux and 2014 Rhone were both gone, turps.... this saved the day.

Violets, prosciutto, stems, and red fruit on the nose. Nice concentration of sweet and sour juice on the palate with a deft aromatic acid touch at the back. Good with birria and green salad. 50 + 16 + 16 + 8 = 90.

[2 day old bottle] Faded but still generous aromas of red cherry, black pepper, dried flowers. Sweet core of penetrating fruit on the palate, clear acid lattice at the back supporting a long fruit-driven finish. Really a lovely concluding wine for the evening with comte and roquefort. 50 + 17 + 16 + 8 = 91.

Much better than three earlier tastings (you can refer to two comments I made). The sulphur taste has completely dissipated. Opened 0ne hour prior to drinking. Now is drinking like a luscious full-bodied berry-filled grenache. Yay!
