Monday, September 9, 2019 - Wow! Big upside surprise on my 40th birthday. Wasn’t expecting a great showing but this was wonderful. 40 years and drinking great! Tannins and structure fully integrated but the wine still had a beautiful freshness and youth. Classic Bordeaux and drinking beautifully! No decant was needed. WOTN!
