Saturday, September 30, 2023 - NOT READY - clearly beautiful, intense and with bags of stuffing for the future, but in my opinion this is just about approachable but realistically not ready, specifically as the tannins are still very chewy and need time to settle.

This was decanted for 1 hour, returned to bottle, slow oxed for a further 1-1.5 hours while we polished off something else, and then returned to the decanter and drunk over 2-3 hours. It did not settle down. The tannins remained teeth coating and raw. If I had a second bottle I would be very pleased with myself but I would leave it for a guesstimate 3-5 year period, if not longer.
