Slight browning colour. Very medicinal on the nose. I also detected some fungus there, analogous to when a piece of toast bread gets green colonies of inhabitants. But also some figs there. Superb structure to the wine. The fruit did seem a bit tired, but this was a well-drinking wine, that was perhaps just over the hill. Good long finish.

Well kept bottle with beautiful label for the old vintage. Amazing how well this has held up, and fun to try. Very drinkable and still pretty alive.
