Bought on release, stored in perfect conditions. Decanted 1 hour initially, 3 hours by the end. Advice: drink up. Enjoyable, with all the characteristic notes, but tired and fading. On the down slope, folks.

Cellared well since release. Expressive on open while still cellar temp. Decanted for one hour. Red fruit and a bit of earth on nose. Really beautiful aromatics. Wine is unfined, so quite cloudy. Well balanced, just a slightly tart finish. But still very pleasant and enjoyable.
