Popped and drank immediately. But I recommend splash decanting it as the sweetness will come through with a few swirls.

clear red with a purplish tinge.

pretty nose of plums, and sweet currants.
sweet red berries, graphite with incredibly smooth tannins

finish of bitter licorice and red fruit. Lingering bitter oak after 20 seconds.

16$/retail. Taste is a bit 1 dimensional but solid 89 pts.
