PnP. Cork was soaked 1/3, came out in one piece. Slightly past it's peak, but still alive. some tertiary notes initially along with jammy dark fruit nose. Quite a lot of fruits still left on the palate with good acidity, slightly bitter vegetal taste and resolved tannin that is still lasting and full. Depending on the storage condition, this can still last for another 2-3 years but won't improve so drink up.

Past it's prime for sure, but not a waste. Smooth finish. Would have been nice to see it's prime.

Browning. Tastes like a tired old Sangiovese. Varnish, bitter fruit, licorice, amaro. Clipped. A bit of oxygen may have crept in.
