Very good. Cork was crumbly, but minimal seepage.
Decanted for 45 minutes.
Color dark red. Minimal to no brickish red.
Legs medium to running fast.
Very nice nose.
Flavor very good. Lots of body still. Tannins smooth. A little astringent but not in a way that’s off putting.
Very tasty. Doesn’t taste 28? Would drink now. Maybe decant a little longer.

Wow loved this wine. Easy drinking almost immediately out of the bottle. Good form / structure. Relatively full bodied. Very smooth though, not hotness / overripe taste. Was quite impressed.

Drink this now. At (or slightly beyond) its prime. Surprisingly good. Nice balance right out of the bottle. Dark fruit, berries, spice, maybe chocolate on the nose. Tasty fruity palate (a little jammy). Long finish.

Drink now.
