From the same bottle as Eric's. It's been open about 1 1/2 weeks now. A dark cola brown that is a little murky with a slightly yellowing edge. A light amount of VA on the nose along with old finished wood furniture, caramelized sugar, and citrus. The searing acidity is showing far more now than when first opened. A very dry profile with grapefruit, and a slight touch of touch of cloves, and more citrus. Nicely balanced across the palate and moderately and slightly monolithic long finish.
