Unbelievably juicy, and in no way suggested this kind of age. A lovely surprise, and one that offered above-average length, complexity. Really quite fun, and as this was served double-blind, I was ~ 2000 right bank, which really says something. Plenty of gas in the tank, but far too much fun to let it rest, for my palate, anyway. 12,5% abv. Drink now and the next 5-8 years. Best to aerate/decant for sediment. recommended+
