Four hour decant. Nice fruit at the start with a finish of leather and earthiness. Smooth and tasty but with a bit of a thin mouthfeel given the age. Great time to be drinking it. Still have 8 left.

Similar to a bottle consumed last year. Drinking very well but not up to the original Pro ratings. Decanted for 2+ hours. That was enough, but it did not evolve over the evening as some other tasters have reflected.

Decanted about an hour. Consistent with the previous note.
