Opened and let breathe in the glass for about an hour and a half before enjoying with roast chicken (I just wanted to drink this tonight). Smooth and luscious fruit like pretty much all of the wines from Booker. Not a hard edge to be found. Delicious and very balanced at this stage. Probably has lots more life, but why wait?

I was surprised at the reviews about this wine being shut down. We decanted it for about 45 minutes and there was a ton of fruit and a fantastic nose. Smelled just like a CdP. Great wine now and should only get better.
