The nose shows maturity, however the lush berry fruits haven't disappeared but mellowed. No discernible brown in the ink black red colour. Soft plum layered with vanilla and licorice. Drying tannins linger.

Toujours sans avoir été carafé, ce vin s'est avéré meilleur que la première bouteille ... Je ne réitèrerai pas mes premiers commentaires, que je maintiens ... cette bouteille a tout simplement mieux traverser le temps ... Je vais racheter ce vin à la première occasion ...

Cork fine. The thing was a winner. Well balanced and still pretty fresh. Would easily manage a few more years.

Opened up nicely with an aerator. Oaky with berries, smooth on the palate.

Very strong notes of berry and plum. Mellows nicely after breathing and has a nice smooth finish. Good legs.
