Babykilling an '11 to check in for a not-rocking-the-red Burgundy Thursday :) Jersey packed away again until next season...why am I not surprised!

I don't find this as shut down as I expected. Decanted about 1.5 hours. Very nice, red cherry, distinct candied fruit spice, chalk, coffee, sweet noticeable rosewater, slight barnyard, touch of vanilla...honestly surprised here. Very approachable now I think, but more time certainly won't hurt, just evolve flavors and smooth it some more. Slight heat, but otherwise very enjoyable.
