Delicious, but may benefit from a few years more. Extremely light at first, then quite tart cherry, ends with thick tannins that catch up, bringing some oak and leather as well. The tannins being a tad bit milder would elevate it significantly

Not as strong of a showing as the other bottle. Delicious but certainly on a decline - lost quite a bit of the acidity that was so integral to the structural balance of my 1st bottle

Dull, acidic but not refreshing. Extremely mild tannins that don’t add much. Bruised fruit aromas. Maybe it was light damaged but this tasted extremely uninspiring, esp for conterno
