Saturday, June 2, 2018 - Took 20 mins to open up, but when it did: wow! Still fragrant and floral on the nose, but predominantly leather and tobacco. On the palate, the tannins have pretty much fallen away so it’s more gentlemanly, with similar flavours as the nose, perhaps with some mushroom. It’s holding up well but drink up for something special. The acidity is still firm so maybe could last longer but to be honest, I wouldn’t chance it.
