Red brick opaque pale margin still with a decent fruit bouquet. Acids softer than before, to the extent it complemented the tomato fresca sauce at Lupino Pasta in Whistler who provides corkage fir a reasonable fee.

Medium deep scarlet with some bricking. Quite big, slightly woody black currant nose. Slightly tight, oaky palate. Needed a longer decant than the thirty minutes I gave it. After quite a bit of air, on the second night it showed much better, much more integrated and smooth. Will keep my remaining bottle for at least a couple more years.

Consumed over three evenings (vacuvin). Decanted two hours, but still pretty closed. On second evening already some smell of aging (raisins) which was completely gone on the third day (a pleasant surprise) when it performed best - beautiful thick, dark nose, full body with sweet fruit and long finish. I would suppose one could still hold this for another three years at least.
