My last bottle was flawed or corked, but this was excellent. Fully mature and ready to drink. Herbal notes on the nose, no bricking, fully integrated fruit, dynamic and sophisticated. Bottle variation suggests cautious purchasing (my bottles were purchased on release and stored in temp-controlled environments so unclear that provenance provides the desired safety net).
