Still very much alive ten years after the vintage. Wonderfully long finish.

The pro reviews I read said this wine was over the hill, but I beg to differ. Still full of abundant power on the nose, it also exhibited lots of leather, mocha, and plenty of fruit. I was surprised at its silkiness and balance. Despite the challenging vintage, even several hours after decanting it held its finesse and did not become flabby.
