Sunday, December 21, 2014 - Decanted 3 hours. Upon opening this was medium red, showing just the slightest bit of age in the color. But it was a bit tight. With a few hours of decanting this was a great combination of lush and balanced. It shows some oak, and a lot of pepper and leather, but it has great fruit, and is a very sexy wine that goes well with the right food and is great to drink on its own. Just great balance for a wine with its characteristics. I remember having this wine some 15 years ago in Paris wondering what age would do - it has done all you would want it to do. Based on this bottle I would be drinking now, but this will not fade anytime soon. A
