Much better than the last bottle opened, which was a little past it. This was elegant after a mild funk had blown off the nose. Decanted for about an hour it was sweet, with violets, some tobacco taste, but sweet like pipe tobacco, good acid, and sour raspberry. Very good for a 15 year old wine.

A little long in the tooth now, but with some interesting tobacco, cedar box notes. Quite a funky nose. Some dark fruits still evident.
