  Found in the cellar. Gifted to me on release. Decanted off minimal sediment. Shockingly this wine is still alive. Smells and tastes of older low-level Bordeaux.
  
  A bit musty, some mint, forest floor, classic old Cabernet nose.
  Tannins fully resolved, light-mid body, lots of mushrooms and forest floor. Actually shockingly long finish. More interesting than baby, monster cabs, but I’m sure 99% of folks would prefer younger wine.
  
  I don’t particularly like it, but I’m glad I didn’t just dump it.

  Founf this wine in the back of my cellar. Aged well. But not much complexity. Smooth taste.
