The wine had port in the nose after opening the bottle and decanting it. I left it for 3 hours and the port was almost completely gone. Great wine, however not the best bottle. 92-93

stunning nose of lifted red berry fruit, cassis, florals, a touch of earth and an attractive mint note over top. palate is beautifully balanced, acidity keeping it fresh, cassis, lightly herbal, perfectly med bodied, a touch of spice, fantastic long mineral-laden finish.

Decanted for 2 hours. Wine was in perfect condition with really nice red fruited Sangio. Great balance and mouthfeel. Which I could have paid closer attention to it, as it was probably my WOTN in a big line up. Drank alongside the '96

Drinking well but still has overwhelming tobacco aroma. Except for that note at the start drinking well. Not sure more age will improve. Drink now
