Leather, mushroom, blackberry, vanilla, blackcurrant, violets, cigar. Beautifully aged at this point. All in place now, I’m not sure if this is going to get much better (but certainly won’t fall off a cliff) Drink now or over next 5 years. 93

Now more subdued than in previous years, with sweet plums, cedar and fruit and less pepper and spice. Improved with multi-hour decant. I don't believe it will improve and I will likely drink my last two bottles over the next year or two. The tannins are fully integrated with some modest oak overtones.
