Wow this wine did not age well. First bottle years ago was amazing, but this bottle, while still fruit driven, had such an off putting finish that it was almost not drinkable.

Opened about one hour prior consumption and didn’t decant it for the lack of one. At that point the wine was mute and lacking character. I shacked the bottle and wait another 30 minutes without improving.
At then end we finished the bottle about 4 hours after opened and didn’t improve a bit, this bottle is tasting like a $15 wine from a food market. I don’t find how to put into words a tasting notes/profile.
I had one bottle just a few months after release that was lovely but now I’ll pass. My last bottle in a 1.5L format will have to wait a few more years to see if the bad face passes…
