November 24, 2022 - Picked this up at auction a few months ago, and it is still a strong cellar entry. Pnp'd into a decanter at the HMCs this afternoon, black as black can be with quite some sediment. Nose is muted to start but improves over 1-2 hours of air in the decanter. Black fruit turns to red with time and the acidity tells me there's quite a bit more time for this one. It's energetic, but not as energetic as a fresh new release. The fruit is teetering between light prune and candied, chocolate raisin. It's a beautiful wine that I would drink now and not let get too much older, but that may be, just me........well worth the $114 I paid for it at auction.
