Drinking beautifully. Plum hit my mouth first followed by minerals and smoke. Tannins are soft finish is long and beautiful. This wine is so complexed. Wish I had 20 more bottles

Chez Br, 2 bottles decanted an hour, perfect corks and levels - glossy, deep not too dark ruby, little development; attractive, classy nose, rich plum and mineral; fullish, long, persistent, decent concentration and balance, curiously refreshing for such a big wine notwithstanding some syrup, fine grained tannins well covered by fruit, silky, upside, 25+ years. F+ (18).

Rich, dark, notes of cofee, chocolate, smokey; you feel the vintage, but well handled.

Great depth of flavor, rich, dense and classy with a long finish and lots of potential to improve.
