Perfect condition after cellaring for 15+ years. Drink it now! The wine looks tawny colored. The legs are slow. There is light sediment in the bottle. It smells like plum, blackberry and prune. It tastes like black currant (cassis) and prune. The body is medium/full. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has medium acidity.

WOW, opened this one next, what a fresh fruit fragrance, red spicy fruit, some herbs, initially great freshness here, very young showing, the fruit spicy with a very good underlying acid frame, the 14% ABV very well integrated, nothing "hot" here, spice, minerals, some meat, really deep, multilayered long finish, really great bottle, needs no real decant now, but the acid frame will keep this wine fresh for a long time from now on, at least a decade, ENJOY! ***(*-*****), 93, 94(+) potential
