This is lovely right now. Not much to add to my last note, from which this wine has not changed that much. Perhaps slightly more intense secondary flavors and aromas...

Pop and pour. Just a beautiful mature Hermitage. Fantastic nose with dark black fruit and loads of char, black olive and great salinity. Fantastic acidity and attenuated tannin on the dark finish. Yum.

Pop and pour, though probably needed a decant, also wasn't the best pairing for my main. Nevertheless, nice nose with smoke, black fruit and charred meat. I didn't find the oak obtrusive, but is definitely present. On the palate, good acidity and loads of charcoal and black cherry liqueur. Soft tannin on the finish, and this bottle improved a lot with air. Wait for a while on next btl, but drinking vety well with some air already.

Opened and tasted. Mute.
Decanted. Flat and perfectly uninterresting.
Will end up tomorrow in a beef cheek ragout.
