Friday, May 13, 2022 - Brownish/reddish color, a bit like stewed strawberry juice..
On the nose some rose petals, leather dust, dusty tannins.
Very soft and subdued, not outstanding features anymore; everything seems to have melted together.
A fine wine, easy to drink but no outstanding or memorable characteristics.
