a couple hours to open in glass, delicious blue fruit and spice, doesn't seem like enough structure left to keep going...was great partner to pulled pork sliders and bacon wrapped dates. One left and pulled it out to drink in next few weeks.

Needed decanting...we opened 2 bottles, one had less sediment while the other had considerable fine sediment. On the nose we had a bit of ash and ripe dark cherries. On the palate, striking plum flavors up front, with hint of raspberry, and black cherry and dried prunes. Some sweetness, good balance in tannins. A lovely wine, great for drinking now. We had it with steak and it was perfect!

Gotta agree with carlsport. This wine is killing it. I didn't decant. Shouldn't need it. My wife, who usually doesn't like older wine even liked it. Well done!
