94 Points

Friday, November 23, 2012 - Opened and gave this a short decant of maybe 30 minutes or so. The absolute best showing of this wine I have had, and have consumed a half dozen or so over the years. The tertiary flavors are starting to show through, and the wine has become fully resolved, although there is no hurry to drink up. Raspberry/strawberry/cherry with spice, but there is a very pleasant and unmistakeable mushroom lurking in both the fore and background. The wine now possesses a smoothness that surrounds the tongue, while not overwhelming it. A pleasure to sip, and I just enjoyed the sensation, but the finish was certainly long and rewarding as well. I am not sure if Joe has any of this left, but if he does, well worth the coin. I am happy to have 4 more bottles of this. Outstanding wine
