The wine took a while to open up, but after a day, it was really singing. Fruit was still evident, although declining, with notes of leather and tobacco. Recommend decanting. A joy to drink.
The wine looks tawny colored. The legs are medium. There is moderate sediment in the bottle. It smells like vanilla, red currant, raspberry, mushroom, medium toast, cedar and game. It tastes like red currant, raspberry, blackberry, mushroom, medium toast, cedar and game. The body is medium. The wine has silky texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has low acidity.

Pas de notes pendant la soirée, mais de souvenir, très beau vin. Robe sombre, bouche pleine et dense. Encore loin de son apogée

Guter Tropfen, trotz seines Alters noch frisch und fruchtig.

Still plenty of fruit but just very uninteresting.
