Last one of these, and a very pleasant surprise. Beautiful nose of forest berries and a little funk. Palate very well integrated with just enough tannin to keep it all together. Very good.

Ruby Red, starting to form brown edges. Cherries, violets, red berries on the nose. High acidity, good mouthfeel. Lots of berries Medium finish, quite tart. Very 'burgundy', moderate quality.

Been sitting on a few of these for a while. Disappointed initially. Although had some nice Burgundian earth, mushrooms, was very thin with virtually no finish. After a while, though, it opened up some. Certainly should have decanted well before dinner.
