  Pop n pour to celebrate my birth year. Notes of earth and game on the nose which opened up beautifully then became somewhat muted. Palate had a touch of fruit, mostly cinammon, earth and cream somewhat musty but held up well. Finish a bit short but well balanced and a special treat.

  Alcohol :: 13.5%
  Opened a day before and corked back. Pulled cork 6hrs and decanted for 60mins before served . Brick red. The feminine, complex bouquet has fully matured that display good sense of harmony with floral, tea leaves, mineral dominant which surrounded with sweet and sour cherry and earth. I'm pretty surprise that after such long hr of aeration, this is still alive and in fact drinking at its best now: round, lush, succulent of healthy red fruits, earth, autumn leaves that form the creamy mouth feel with its silky, fully integrated tannin and move onto the silky, persistent finish. This doesn't has the best depth but very impressive and seductive with its elegance feminine form.
