This time I was serving this wine, so I had a chance to witness its evolution during aeration (say hello to our little decanter). Hard to drink straight after uncorking. But 2+ hours in decanter makes a huge difference. Still a powerful and almost full-bodied blend. Oak is so apparent here, but quite well integrated. Ripe cherries, figs, and coffee. Not complex, mostly fruit-forward.
