This has aged quite a bit since last. Now has some cigarrbox reminiscent of bdx on the nose. Not unpleasant. Palate still dominated by fruit, acid and some rather fine tannin. Peppery. Id say this is ready to go, not sure palate will benefit from more time.

Thats just great. Heavy, with some lift. Conc +, acid -, tannin med.+. Drink now, or hold a few in a good cellar.

I'll second chatters' note and add - iron, elegant medium+ tannins. Feels like this will improve for at least 5 yr more... c. 88 presently

Negotiant Imported Wines (Marriot on Pitt Street, Sydney): wild ferment funkiness, cherry and berry, earthy, tight, savoury fruits, sour fruit with a lively mid-palate burr, fleshy. Nice.
