Friday, February 23, 2024 - Decanted back into bottle 30 mins prior to steak dinner. Smell from decanter was some BDX funk and leather- love it. In glass, poured dark red nearly no browning at rim. Nose and flavors of leather, turned earth mixed with dark plums with chocolate. Runs a line of Old School Bordeaux and a touch modern style- which makes this wine interesting. Wife kept her glass empty fast after each pour. She loved it too. From first glass to last glass 3 hours later, this wine held up just fine. Should be good for another 2-3 years at least. Drinks wonderful now, especially with food.
