    It's going to look a bit more orangish for a little while before it settles back into a nice bronze color :D

    Ohhhhh... you meant tannins? I got ya ;)

    Potentially have too much of an astringent bite/drying on the tongue, but don't worry about it until it's had some time to age. Tannins tend to mellow down over time.

    It will be a little more astringent.
