If i remember correctly this vintage was close to undrinkable (completely unbalanced and boring) in 2017. Now it has definitely improved, probably two to three years more then going to decline. With the good acidity and nicely balanced tannins it went very well with our mushroom-pasta. Also had chocolate afterwards and this combined excellently as in a previous review.

Took about 90 min to open up after decanting. Nice tannins, hints of anise and maybe pomegranate. Good with our meal and excellent with the chocolate dessert.

Ruby red color, nose of plums and cherries. Well resolved tannins, good acid. Mature, yet with enough complex fruit left to intrigue. Seems to be in the sweet spot, but I look forward to seeing how it will evolve in the next couple of years.

After decanting about an hour we loved it so much we had to open another bottle. Smooth and lovely. So glad we let it age a bit!
