Deep red. Smoke, blueberry, salumi, leather, vanilla nose. Blackberry, pepper, leather, medium-long finish. Smooth tannins and fairly lively acid. This should last a few more years, although I’m not sure it will improve much.

Corked.
Damn, I think there was brilliance underneath that cork flaw. Those of you whom with this bottle in your cellar are mighty lucky

Sugar plum and raisin aromas. Well extracted flavors. Some smokiness. Long lasting. Very dark color.

Needed about 2 hours in the decanter and it started to open up brilliantly

I think this vintage has peaked. Good, but no longer great. Drink up!
