Wednesday, November 25, 2009 - Seems at or just past peak, but this was a bottle picked up at auction. Great complex nose, smokey, old bottle bouquet, meaty, leather, some dark blackberry and plum fruit left also. The tannin in this bottle is almost resolved, still some acidity, but fairly soft mouth feel. With air some soy sauce flavors creep in, but very nice for the first 90 minutes. Great with a leg of lamb.
