Opened for 30 minutes prior to tasting. Luminous medium burgundy color; lovely perfumed nose. Stunningly luscious fruit, despite all the years of bottle age this one has.
It has matured beautifully, and it is recommended for your near term drinking pleasure. Outstanding!

This bottle was in its happy place with beautiful fragrant red and dark fruit, Mediterranean spices, earth, floral and mineral notes. Quite robust palate presence, but with an energetic thrust and long, lingering red-fruited finish. A really superb vintage for this wine.

Ripe raisin fruits, chocolate and pepper. Rich, heady and powerful. Good depth and structure.
