I decanted the wine 2 hours before we drank it. it was pretty solid given the age. the tannins have softened significantly. A hint of dark fruit and mocca. had a earthy finish a reminded me a litle of a bordeux. I wish i had more

Stern and austere, with a strong menthol note running through it. Not much in the way of fruit. Polished texture, but would have liked a hint of lushness. Earthy finish. Better with food than on its own, but overall a disappointment. Drink up.

Good but not great. Ready to drink although still very stiff with tannins.

Very rounded tannins, smooooooth. Years in the cellar paid off. Dark berries, cocoa, some dark chocolate and mocha. Nice long finish. Wish I had more.
