96 Points

Saturday, July 21, 2012 - 16th Anniversary at Jean Georges NYC. Decanted for 45 mins, drunk over 3.5 hours. Licorice, saddle leather and faint tobacco on the nose with a hint of toasted oak. Light mouthfeel that puts on weight with the passing of time. 25-35 second finish. For the first 60-90 mins after decanting the elegant approach masked a strong punch that kicked-in after 20+ seconds. The wine became more fruit-forward as the night wore on, and the wine became more uniform, smooth and integrated - dark cherry, rich blueberries and dark tobacco moved to the forefront. Really great wine.
