Decanted for several hours. Nose has aromas of plum, anise and spice. Palate is softer than I recall from the last bottle. Medium bodied and smooth. I get flavors of cola on the palate. The finish has a hint of acidity, but very subdued. I think this wine should be enjoyed now. 5,12,15,5=87

Decanted for 2+ hours (the longer the better as it really started to open up). Color very dark. Nose of licorice and black cherry. Palate is full-bodied, balanced, smooth, with an distinct acidity on the back side. Firm lingering finish. Nice wine to enjoy by itself after a meal. 5,13,16,6=90
