Double decanted for regular wine group about 4 hours. Was very good but wonder if more air would have helped. This stood along well with higher competition. This could go on for at least several more years at least.

For a cool vintage wine, this shows in surprisingly powerful ways. Black cherry, spice and new oak on the nose. Flavors coming through are black raspberry/blackberry compote along with spice and a bit of menthol. Some chocolate? Anyway - really good stuff. It evolved significantly over the two hours in the glass. Definitely decanting next time - at least two hours.

Maybe some bottle variation here? Last bottle was stellar, this was definitely more subdued. Nice cabernet aromas and was expecting a lot, but first sip somewhat of a letdown. Have a few more, so we will see...

Really nice with a two hour decant but no rush.
