Drinking really well with about 30 minutes of air. I picked up a floral note on the nose, which was really nice. Blackberry and plum on the palate, with dusty stones emerging later. In a great spot now, wonderful wine. Can only hope the later vintages I own show this well.

Deep dark and brooding blend. Tight on PnP and then opened up nicely after about 30 minutes. Notes of blackberry, earth, and spice. Structured and delicious. Sweet tobacco note is killer on day 2. Some sediment in the bottle.
