2016 Ferrando Colombis

Drinking at home.

2016 Isabel Ferrando Châteauneuf-du-Pape Colombis - started drinking after 1 hour in decanter. Decent amount of ripe, black fruits on the nose. Not overpowering or overripe. One could feel that the tannins were still around, and the wine was grippy on the finish. Woodsy notes along with some spices on the nose. After 2½ hours in the decanter the wine was slightly softer, but still kinda tannic. By now the nose was also a bit minty with some leather notes. Pretty nice, and would love to see how this ages.
