Excellent older wine. Excited about the second bottle. Opened and drank slowly. Really hit the sweet spot around hour 2, but started shutting down hour 3.5. Will take more detailed notes next time

Popped and poured. Started off tight, but really opened in the glass after about an hour. Nose of crushed berries, licorice and fresh herbs. Nice red, slightly sour, fruit on the palate with nice balance and depth. Slightly thin, but nice overall structure and finish. Solid QPR.

Just not the same as the first bottle. Many of the same characteristics I remember but never opened up the way the previous bottle had. Shame
