The aroma have been already superb when it is just open. The palate has not caught up yet. Around an hour, things become perfect. This bottle is definitely right at its peak, leather, tobacco, savage....backed up with a mature acidity. A hint of tea and sweetness surely added points in my perspectives. A nice and graceful Angelus.

Needed air for around 2 hours. As a wine made from Pinot Noir, the colour was quite deep. Rich and elegant, still evolving. Clearly full of cherries, a little flowery. The finishing is long and varied, which is the most enjoyable part for this bottle. Save 1/3 for the next day, still good and love it.

Got half of bottle from a friend after his Zoom tasting. Black fruit, plum, tobacco, Chinese tea, the aroma is nice and the palate is good. Easy drinking after enough breathing. The downside is the finishing, a bit too short.
