Cork broke on opening. Wine was decanted and given 3 hours to breathe. Bouquet was lovely. The color was as deep and dark as I’ve ever seen in a wine — really striking. It drank beautifully, but IMO there’s no further reward for waiting at this point.

This is a terrific bottle of wine. I have 2024 down as the last year in the drink window. One bottle left. While the wine does not show any signs of tiring, I will likely drink the last bottle later this year. It used to require a decant. This bottle was just opened for an hour and a half.....did not need a decant. Warning.......the cork broke in half.

Great wine. I’d say this more mid stride than fading.

Open for about 30 minutes followed by a one and a half hour decant. Still drinking very well. No signs of it tiring.
