Damp but solid cork. Decanted. Deeply coloured, some lightnesss at the rim. Rich and ripe dark berries with a strong whole bunch spice and fine oak fragrance. Fruits are plummy. Solid weight, rich and tasty, has developed but fruit still dominant. Coarse for what it is, but still a great wine for its age. Feels like it could last another 20yrs. Flavours are ripe dark cherries, some sour cherry stones, quite plummy and with a little prune. Nice balance and acidity, finishes long and clean and still with some fine tannins. Drinking beautifully.
