6 hour decant, tannins too overpowering to properly enjoy but discernible quality, and purity underneath. Current score reflects those polarities so will increase once ready - it could be a cracker but wouldn’t touch another bottle for at least 10 years. Same story next day so blended 40/60 with a 2007 Vina Ardanza Reserva, heresy perhaps but the result was delightful.
