Saturday, October 13, 2007 - Open for four hours, decanted in the last hour. Color is still suprisingly dark around the edges for its age. The nose is very pretty. Lots of flowers, blackberry, tobacco and earth, all of which follow through on the palette, stretching out on the long finish. The mouthfeel is very silky, but also carries a weight that is suprising for it's 12.5% alcohol content. This is all about Old World elegance and class. Paired deliciously with game hens with a red currant sauce.
