Just a bit too late on this one. I think it would have been 93-94 a couple years ago. Still an excellent wine, but past it's peak. If you have it, drink it.

Basicly consistent notes since 2019. Decanted an hour. Deep purple. Nose of cassis, a bit of vanilla, and dark fruits. Rich blueberry, blackberry, and a hint black currant. Tannins dusty but not intrusive. Remains quite primary. Stored perfectly and still room to change in a good way, i think, but i won't wait too long.

on open, seemed quite tired... after about an hour, it woke up a bit and tannins came forward and gave it some balance. Kept half a bottle over night and next day it was over tired again.. Still enjoyable but drink up.
