Really wanted to love it, but I think it was past its prime. Old and smokey, with menthol and savory notes -- it just never fully came together for me. That said, many classic notes as well.

Amazed how much this wine opened up after the first hour. Mushroom nose, musty. But this wine really opens up in the mouth with a rich raspberry and soft tannins. Think this wine is drinking at its peak right now.

I liked this better than the Preda. Much more of an elegant style. Red berry, tobacco and coffee notes. Smooth finish. Will improve 91+ points.
