This was a really nice wine. In 2023 the end drinking drinking date changed from 2030 to 2018. I still think it was amazing subtle dark fruit very low tannins and could be drank this year or even next. I opened the bottle an hour or 2 earlier but I did not decant the wine. I don't recommend decanting this wine because once it's in the glass it off gases within seconds.
I shared this wine with a couple head Somms from some major restaurants as well as some Wset diplomats. It depended on their tasting profile. The ones that do like this type of wine thought it was a really really great wine.
I check celler tracker a couple times a year to see if any wines change their drinking end date. I have a couple 100 bottles in my cellar and I'm always worried I won't get to the bottles in time.

Unfortunately i waited to long to drink this and should of opened it a couple years ago. The fruit was minimal and the acid and tannins were non existent.
