My third bottle of this (first in a few years) and wow. Decanted for 3+ hours and consumed over another two, was reaching new heights by the end so I will have to be even more patient in the future.
Structure was near-perfect, and more fruit shown through than I recall with previous bottles. Just exceptional.

Decanted for ~5 hours.
Red fruit, baking spices, acidity is high but certainly not problematic. With some maturation this could be tremendous, several more points possible.

Fantastic but took a full 7-8 hours before it was really open - didn't get to spend enough time with it to score but obviously a fantastic wine.
