  Magnificent bottle. Opened and carafed about 4-5 hours before. Very flowery and ref-fruity on the nose. Then aromas of tobacco, liquorice and chocolate. Quite a long finish. We "vacu-vined" the rest of the bottle and had it the next day: it was almost even better the next day. My rating would have been 92 on day 1 and 95 on day 2.

  Décanter 2 à 3 heures minimum. Assez doux comme bordeaux. Est ce l’âge ou la bouteille ?

  Has really integrated. Dark fruit, earthy notes. medium to long finish. One bottle left, hold for medium term.

  Opened and carafes 1 hour before. I wish I had done that 2 or 3 hours before. A bit closed at first, took a good hour to start revealing its flavours: liquorice, tobacco, leather, and a bit of violet. Very smooth, very ready, and yet I think it may still hold a few years in store. But I would definitely open and decant several hours before drinking.

  Dark berry and tobacco. Medium finish, nicely integrated.
