Big change from our last bottle a year ago. Fruit has subsided, much more earthy. Unless this was just a unique bottle, I would suggest drinking these soon.

Big bold wine. Still somewhat tannic. Lots of deep brooding fruit. Stayed strong over four hours open. Still at least 2-3 years left at peak, maybe more.

Decanted for 4 hours. Wonderfully pleasant. Kept evolving as time progressed. Petit Verdot can be difficult but James Cole has been rather consistent with his productions.
