I opened this 1.5L Mag with some best friends last night. It took about an hour to come around and then it was smooth sailing though the larger format bottle. Definitely mature, don’t hold them any longer, but a fun treat indeed.

This wine is a little past it's prime, but I decanted for 3 hours and turned out quite nice. This one was much better than the last bottle I drank due to the decanting time. I was not patient enough with the first bottle I drank.

Wine appears to be on its last legs...drink remaining bottles sooner rather than later. Fruit and acitity have been reduced, flavors are more earthy.
Wine on open of the bottle was very unapproachable, after about 1.5 to 2 hours in the decanter it really began to open up and was much improved from the first 20 mins.
